Default Fuel Gauge - how accurate?

Just wondering how accurate a fuel gauge is on a non-step 38. I know on my 27 fountain that anything under 1/2 tank and you better be finding fuel and fast. Didn't know how close the TG's were?

At a 1/4 tank you need to get fuel on a non step.

Two things
1. Fill up every chance you get and you won't run out of gas.
2. What were "non-steps" called before there were "steps"? Speaking on behalf of all vee hull owners, we are vee hulls and you are the non-vee-hulls (or steps, if you prefer)

1. No ****?

2. Speaking on behalf of 'stepped" owners if you prefer, you are "slow" and we are "not".

Go spin somewhere.


The gauge on the Cafe was empty at 1/2 learned the hard way!
