Another Quick Survey - How many hours on your RT?

Our 2016, R27 has 1100 + hours.
Bill
 
2016 R29S. 5 times to Desolation and 3 times to the Broughtons. Numberous north and south sound. 867 hours and never a major problem.
 
When we purchased our 2008 R25 in 2014 it had about 400 hours on the Cummins/Mercruiser. We're now at a little over 1800 and running better than ever.
 
Just an update. COVID had its impact because detonations didn’t want to see visitors at one point. Now 456 hours on the 2017 RT2017.
 
On our 2015 RT31, 476 hours. We put on 175 hours of those hours in the last year.
 
2012 R27 Classic with 481 hours.

The survey about length of RT ownership piqued my curiosity about total engine hours on our boats. How many hours has your engine been chugging along? I'll start:

Our original 2016 R-21EC with VP D1-30, Scout, was sold with 147 hours.

Our current 2012 R-27 Classic with Yanmar 4BY2-180, Amy Marie, has 498 hours.

Happy New Years Everyone!

In 1 year we have put 200 hours on Toujours. Hoping at least 300 next year.
 
Now at 2740hrs on my 2014 R21EC.
 
2015 R25SC around 450
 
Holy *%*# ! Do you let it idle in your slip when you're not using it?

I predict you win the prize in this little contest.

Larry, I'm with you! NEWF W/ Saltwater Joy gets my vote, at 2740 Hrs at a quart an hour equals about 685 gallons of diesel fuel. A 7 year old boat equals about 100 gallons per year. With a 18gallon tank that's about 6 or 7 fuel stops a year with a average of 15 gallons each. Eat your heart out fast boats!
Or your wallet! Bob

Ha ha. No idling in a slip for me. I trailer the boat and I use it strictly for fishing so lots of idling/trolling hours given that I only have to travel at cruise speed for 10-15min to troll for salmon and 30min to anchor for halibut. I'm always worried about the low rpm's for trolling because of all the stories that it is hard on a diesel but so far so good. I stay on top of the routine Maintenance so hopefully many more hours left in her.
 
2015 R25sc, 1175 hours. 2005 R21 Classic, 800 hours.
 
R29 Classic with Yanmar 6BY 1980 Hours.
 
Our 2016 R31S has 519hrs on the clock. D4-300.
 
2nd owner of my 2015 R31-CB. Engine has 338 hours.
 
2100, 2010 R21
 
2021 R27OB- about 40 hours...

Too many hobbies, not enough time!
