I put gas in the Suburban, and picked up the boat at lunch. I swear it used an 1/8th of a tanks in a 12 mile round-trip! At least I don't have to feed that thing every day.

On the positive side, I'm really happy with the new cover. It looks better than factory, and with some care should last more than twice as long. The last cover I had made was pretty crappy looking, but this guy I found now does first class work, and is fast, too. He's definitely a keeper for cover and upholstery work.

I just filled my cans again and the tally for 69 hours of running on
my new Yamaha 70 is 80 gallons of gas.
1.2 gallons an hour. I can live with that.

Yes indeed, that's not bad!
