......what is the fuel burn rate on your boat?

I have a Glastron GS209 powered by a single 4.3L 190 HP engine. I
tracked the fuel burn for several months and it generally calculated
out each time to be between 2.5 GPH and 3 GPH.

55 GPH at 25 Kts (Not worth the speed)
40 GPH at 21 Kts (Clean Plane, best cruise speed)
25 GPH at 11 Kts (Wahoo trolling at ALMOST plane...worst fuel economy )
5 GPH at 5 Kts (most economical... also the speed most likely to cause a
mutiny)

48 Ocean 1991 671 TIB + 12.5 KW genset running

Nice ride but I would hate to offer to pick up the tab at the pump!
