Cruising speed Operating the engine at wide open throttle (WOT) should be avoided since it is both uneconomical and uncomfortable. Volvo Penta recommends a cruising speed in the range 500– 1000 rpm lower than maximum rpm at WOT. Depending on hull type, choice of propeller, load and conditions etc. the maximum engine speed at top speed can vary, but it should be within the WOT range. Wide Open Throttle range: ............. ,2700–3,000 r
