2800 RPM is running the engine pretty hard but if you are underpripped, you
might have to run it this hard. I have a new Yanmar which I criuse at just
below 2400 (6.5 knots).

The RPM numbers are by engine model number. For example my 3JH2E is 3400
continuous, not 3200. That said 85% of 3,200 is 2720.

My tachometer turned out to be within 50 RPMs, so not all the tachs are off. I
used Josh's link from a few months ago in ordering a digital tach just to make
sure.
I recommend checking just to be sure. Bruce Whitmore

Engine at 180°F doesn't sound bad. I believe the steam you see is just the
effect of cooler surrounding air and water. The measure of adequate
cooling which I've heard is, being able to place your hand on the exhaust
elbow. It might be warm... Not hot.
Max continuous = 3200rpm
Max 1 hour = 3400
