Default Sea Ray 340. On topic, but be warned.......

Yes on both counts. The boat is under powered, and the fuel capacity
of 225 gallons is on the light side for twin inboards of that size.


Out this way, that 225 gallons provides more than adequate range for extended
weekend cruising. We aren't making high speed 60 mile runs offshore like an
East Coast, Gulf, or SoCal sportfisher. Our typical weekend boater would seldom
cruise more than 50-70 nautical miles roundtrip. With prudent fuel management,
that 225 gal would get a boater from Seattle to the San Juans and back. Barely.

Adequate fuel capacity depends a lot on intended use.
