On average you will get between 2.5 and 3.0 miles per gallon. This assumes
you are running on plane and are running between 3000 and 4000 rpms. The
lower the rpms the better the mileage.

Everyone wants to quote gallons per hour at a certain rpm. How many hours
do you run at the same rpm? Miles per gallon means so much more as you
should know how far you have gone using either a chart or a gps. This will
tell you exactly how far you can still go on a given amount of fuel.

Of course that is my opinion.

Does anyone have something that will tell me what the fuel consumption
expectations are for a Pro-line 211 walkaround with a 5.7L carbureted
engine?

It's listed in the Powerboat Guide, which I'm too cheap to buy just to get
this
question answered.

I'm also too cheap to put a fuel meter on it.

Actually, I'm so cheap I may not burn the electricity to turn this
computer on
to get an answer....but I'll love you if you try.

Thanks!
