PERFORMANCE
The seating position gives a great view in all directions and you
sit high with a footrest and the controls in easy reach. The seats
adjust for reach. The SeaStar steering has a light, positive feel that
made even sharp turns easy and effortless. With the boat trimmed
in all the way, it planed off in 5 and a half to 6 seconds, so there's
plenty of power for a load, or towing tubes and the test boat had
trim tabs to help in side winds.
Suzuki recommends the best operating range maximum for this
motor to be 5,500 to 6,300 RPM and the 4-blade stainless steel
prop on the test boat was chosen for fuel-effi ciency. That didn't
hamper the acceleration though and we saw a top speed of 41.9
mph at wide-open throttle turning 5,500 RPM.
Normal comfortable cruising at 30 mph has the Suzuki turning a
quiet and effortless 4,000 RPM and according to the digital engine
readout, we were doing 3.5 miles per gallon which is good.
OVERALL
The Oakley 245 CC feels like a rough and tumble partner that's
ready to take on anything, alone or with a big gang. The Suzuki
250 is nicely matched and the package should deliver years of
safe, comfortable service through just about any weather.
