Before I get roasted for being anal...which I am BTW...our state offers a fuel tax refund for recreational boats.

I used 882 gallons over 52.8 hours (boat had 2 on it when it arrived) equals 16.7 gph. I'm pleased with that given I typically averaged around 14 on the PQ 340 with HO's. And even better is the fact I kept that boat at a different boatel that had almost a half hour no wake zone just to get to the bay! This boat...I'm sticks down in 5 minutes!

The gps was at about 1000 miles, but that is not applicable because I wasn't diligent about turning it on for every trip...especially the short ones. That will change next summer!

Glad you started this thread. It just reminded me I need to tally mine up and get them sent in to the state.

Although I did the math and I will be getting back $154. Whoopee! That's a short run to somewhere.

Pat, I hope you collected on the bet with Frank on which motors I would opt for. I surely made the right decision!!

Damn Mack....good GPH!!

WOW!! Va. gives you a tax break on boat gas!!! WOW, N.Y. would never do anything like that, they would charge us more if they could figue out a way.. Good for you guys I am glad someone gets a break..

NH has a fuel tax refund as well.

Unfortunately, I don't usually buy fuel up there.

The one time I did try to run in NH last year was the time the starboard motor committed suicide.

It sure doesn't seem like it at the time of use!

Looks better after it's tallied up for sure. 8+ gph/motor ain't so bad is it...overall.

Be interesting to see what my rpm ranges are, which I will check. I do know my HO's had an extremely high percentage below 1500...because of that damn no wake zone.

I bet mine's not that good

You've given me the impression (from having to hammer down to keep up with you) this would be a true statement.

So get out the calculator and let us know.

Don't know if I can calculate that high
