So what's everyone's preferred RPMs for cruising on plane, how about when putting around?

On plane, 5500-5800 is my happy place. Puts me at about 25-28ish MPH.
For a long cruise down the river, I will set the cruise anywhere between 23-30 mph. That's around 5300-6000 rpm for my usual load out. All depends if we are in a hurry or jamming to music.
