Very good reads. Now consider hydrodynamics of each boat. Displacement and Drag, how much power was required to maintain 10knts. Also, I noticed a few posts down about HP and speed. Each increas of 1knt requires more to obtain that speed increase then the speed increase for the previous 1 knot of speed. i.e. To go from 10knts to 11knots may take a additional say 10HP but to go from 11knts to 12knts may take 10.5 HP more. This is the effect of the preasure ridge building in front of the boat pushing all the water a side.
Were you able to find any actual HP stats that specify if Metric?
