Re: what size boat? and motor set up At least 5 mpg and sometimes over 10 mpg - depends on load and
throttle use - the aftermarket carbs burm a bit more fuel but either way 2 6 gallon tanks will take you over 50 miles with ease... _________________ Eat - Sleep - Hunt ! ! ! "It is good to have an end to journey toward; but it is the journey that matters, in the end." |
