Default 3,000rpm speed query

I find that we run our boat around 3,000rpm usually when out for a nice comfortable cruise, not race, run check out but enjoyable cruise. This ends up being about 35-37 mph for us with neutral drive and trim settings.
We're on the low end of the power spectrum with carbed 7.4's in a Sport Fish Cruiser with about 8,600 lbs dry. With a 220 gal fuel tank and stuff the weight grows !!!!!

With the varity of Fountain sizes and power here I'm curious what you all get at 3,000rpm.
