RPM/Speed efficiences


We are preparing for a boating trip on our 1983 Riviera 2807 this coming week. Single screw 454 Crusader.

Due to the issues weve had with the boat in the past, i havnt had much time to play around with speeds too much to figure out what is most efficient. This past weekend we cruised at about 8 knots at 2000 rpm.
I also cruised a bit at 2300 rpms- about 10 knots.

Can anyone offer any experience or knowledge with this? We are cruising from the boston area down to cape cod and will probably cover a couple hundred miles during the trip.

Thanks!
