Pretty good Dave. I get around 5 gph over the last 3 years. Generally, with no fuel meter to track, I'm in the 25 to 35mph range. Now, 3000 rpm's gets me 30 to 32 mph. There's a math quiz tomorrow on my mpg.
Mine is a very efficient boat, which is paid for in rough water.
Note to Sky:
I think you not only misread the sarcasm in Dave's post, but that you revealed your discomfort level. I know some here are pretty scared, even anal, about even having a boat on plane. So be it. Some of the worst drivers I've ever seen on the road only drive slowly....
and many times, right through a red light.
I'd rather have a thousand Dave's on the water than a single Captain Bonehead. YMMV
