Default Quite possibly the ultimate center console

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.

It seems like wretched excess as a tool to go catch a fish.

Do you think a 36' Zimmerman like lobster boat used for cruising would
be "obscene"?

Yes. It would be much more practical with a pair of diesels and
corinthian leather seats, not as fast though, and those quad 300s do
look kind of cool when you see them in person.

I'm thinking the "wasteful" fuel burn is probably less than a, say,
36' Zimmerman like lobster boat.

It turns out that modestly powered lobster boats are fairly fuel
efficient, especially the ones that exist only on the internet.

How wasteful is your 36' lobster boat?
