We use about 8 gph towing a dinghy in flat water/no wind. That's with twin diesels running at 8 to 8.5 kts. In rough water we hoist the dinghy up on deck. 9.3 L 570ci 350 hp 1150 ft-lb International single straight 6 cruising at a modest 52 kts. 37'4" long, Beam 8' 4", Approx 15t, and towing 3700lb dingy. In rough water we will sink. That's more information than some of the scaredy cats in rec.boats are willing to reveal. Cruising at a modest 52 knots and a 2 ton dingy??? I'm sure you'll figure it out, Tim. ------------------------------------------------------ My lips are sealed. ==== Land yacht. |
