Oh, it's not "too" bad, it's just more per hour than I like to burn.
I'll be working to find that sweet spot of around 25 mph and just under
6gph, if it is findable.

25 mph with only 60 hp?

I don't think so.


Say what?

At 6 gph the engine would be putting out about 60 hp, about 1 gph for
every 10 hp actually developed, same for most gas engines.

How fast would the boat go with a 60 horse running wide open?
