Re: ProDrive 36 HP Fuel Consumption I have actually been 70 miles on 6 gallons of gas before
Then again I have also only been 35 on 6 gallons, It all depends on how your running -- if ya get stuck your gonna burn more than just running.

Re: ProDrive 36 HP Fuel Consumption The load on the motor will affect the fuel consumption as will the position of the load in the boat, also it will burn more fuel at full throttle than 3/4. You will have to gauge it for yourself on your own loaded rig.
