1.8 mpg average.

For some reason it only displays in .2 increments. So depending on conditions it shows 1.6, 1.8 or 2.0 mpg running those speeds.

we 71.2 mph today with full crew and fuel. i have multiple eyewitnesses. i would expect to see 73-74mph with less weight. pretty good numbers for a small block boat.

I assume you are running the river, so what type of boat? Thanks.
Sorry for the delay, I thought I recognized it from the pix. I have a '96 Checkmate 253 Convincor. I am always running around pool 26 and up by the islands every time my wife navigates. LOL.

We are usually just up from you on the island (enterprise??? I think) behind the rock dike.

I drool over your boat every time we go past it. My wife has gotten to the point where she says " I know baby, that is a beautiful boat".

Sorry I do not have a picture.They are BENNETT TPI-2000 they cost about $165.
Very easy to install, make sure to call Bennett for your correct ram length, they were alot of help.
