Looking to buy Freedom 28

Posted by bobbritton2003 (bobbritton2003@…>)

Looked at one 1987 so far.

Is the 18 HP engine enough power ?

Any special concerns with the 28 ?

Thanks, Bob

The same engine is plenty of power for my 30.

Always powered ours out the Cape Cod Canal (well, not through it against
the current) and through Woods Hole either way with no problem.

There is a school of thought that you need 1 HP for each 500 LB of
displacement. A 9,000 LB boat would require an 18 HP engine. My 32 weighs
9,000 lb has the 3GM which is perfectly adequate and generates about 22 HP.
Good luck,
TW

Yanmar 3GM30F 27 hp. Some say +/- 1 hp/ft LWL-also close
