All this discussion makes me appreciate the fuel squeezing 3.0 I ahve
in my ChrisCraft. Spend a good day at the lake for less than $50.00
of gas.

The 23 foot Marquis with it's 350 chevy will be different,
but .........

My 4.3L is pretty thrifty also..........not like the twin 5.7L's I had on
the other boat. ;-)

There are going to be a lot of large boats sitting mainly idle this summer.


I had ye olde, backwards 283 "vette" engine in my '64 CC Cavalier
cruiser. it had a 50 gal tank and it NEEDED it! push it hard and
you'd think the tank sides would almost collapse!
