Just wondering if any of you larger boat guys are contemplating
downgrading your boat, or giving up time on the water this year due to
the high costs? I would think it would pretty much suck to have to
give up amenetities you have been accustomed to for so long. If so,
what do you have, what will you consider as an alternative?


What is diesel fuel going for now at the docks. The bill to fill the
500+ gallon tank(s) on Eisboch's Navigator must be a killer.

Richard........what is your average fuel burn/hour?


25 gallons per hour (total, both engines) at 19 kt. cruise.
But the fuel in my tanks only cost about 2 bucks/gallon, if that. g
