Hi,
I'm looking at a 26 Pacemaker Center console to buy that has twin Volvo Pentas 3.0GL, but during test running boat at dock I noticed temp gauge on starboard motor alomost immediately went above 160 degrees while port motor took awhile longer but did get close to the same operating temp of about 170. What would be the correct temp for these motors to run. I'm think the starboard motor may have a slight more blockage in exchangers then the port? Also would this boat be under powered with these motors?
Thanks
