I thought my 2002 35' playboy held 225 gal just like the 38' top guns. nope It holds 140 gal and since it gets 1 mile per gal it does not go the 200 miles that we were traveling

but since the port motor uses more fuel when it ran out i headed for shore and almost made it.
i guess the money i spent on vessel assist was worth it, 5 gals got me to the gas dock and it was only $3.75 a gal. ouch

But it was still a great day and the water was sweet.

Yup it was an awesome day for boating- i was w/ Sherman in the Scarab today...

Nice Catalina trip and perfect off shore boating weather.

Keep it full...

Glad you made it to shore safely! You guys are truly nutz for traveling across the open ocean for that distance. I am bummed we missed ya'all. As we were racing across the channel, the starboard coil gave out and the engine was misfiring badly. I am sunburned from the long idle home.

We had a great time (although never enough) and the boat was running great...we always fill up before a run too...
Bummed we weren't able to hang out on the island with everyone...but made the wife happy making it to the wedding.
Our boat never seems to take the whole 100 gals a side either
and we ran one dry at Mead (lucky we were already at the ramp) and it still only took around 90 gals...

Tom

I ran them both dry and they each took 70 gal. i checked my manual(which only list the specs for a cafe racer) and it says that it holds 190. if i had that other 50 gal i would have made it.

Hey Chris...see you lurking...you should have brought the boat out for the day...it was great...next time

Tom

I agree but boy do I have a clean garage, yard, pool and .....


Yeah, I should have gone.

Chris

yes you should have
