This boat ran a couple of times while I was there. Sounded great. I wanted to see it in person but never was able to catch up with him. I was told it has a single engine and takes two to drive it and has a pretty good top speed. I later saw the boat at the Pier 57 store. Nice looking boat.

My favorite speed was around 45 mph. The boat just purred and used about 40gph.

After running the first day with Robert, we were trying to see if his 600's were more frugal on fuel than the 525's, and I realized I was only showing half of the fuel I was actually using. I had a setting wrong (A instead of D) on the meter. Once I changed it the Floscan was counting fuel faster than I could! It looks like it's right on the money now. The factory fuel gauge is pretty much useless now. It was showing dead E and the low fuel light was on and I still had 30+ gallons of fuel. (Not much, but in a pinch it's nice to know you still have those 30 gallons!) After seeing Thomas's Smartcraft, it makes the Floscan look sad! Did you get out yet?
