We saw one of these in Key West last week with quad 300s on it:

With 600 gallons of fuel you should be able to run most of the day at
cruising speed.

Y-a-w-n. Boring. Wasteful. Stupid.

May be wasteful, but with quad 300's would not be boring.

Look below at Harry's response!!!!!
Let's see, he doesn't like fast boats because he doesn't have one.
He's stated that he doesn't like trawler type boats like Wayne's
because they are too slow (really because he doesn't have one).
Typical Harry for you, if he doesn't have it, it's not worth having,
just ask him.
In other words WAFA

I wish I had a camera at the boat show. By far the plainest most
boring and pooly designed boats there were the Parkers, even if they
are supposed to be well built. Tom showed me the boat Harry used to
have, it was funny. It had at least a 10 square foot hole in the
transom, almost down to the water level with a cheesy peice of plastic
screwed in front of it to keep back water. The cheesy piece of plastic
was not much higher than the motor mount transom, it was terrible. The
lines were square and there is no need for that in this day and age.
Cheap and lazy, and the sides were a mess, wavy and cheap looking,
just a plain ugly boat with way too many flaws...
