Default MPG

Just got back from a 45 mile cruise up the gorge, most of which was at
cruising speed, 28 mph, 3200 rpm's. Used 18 gals. which translates into
2.5 miles/gal. Does that seem right for a 25' V hull with a 5.7 liter,
Alpha Drive? (I thought it would be 1.7 or so).

That sounds great. I only get about 4nmpg, and that's at less than 1/3
of the speed you make...(but in a slightly larger boat).
