Best as I could figure with the little I have run mine it burns around 15 GPH if ya are playin! 22 pachanga procharged 454.

On second thought...if ya throttle up and go for a few minutes...the gas gauge moves a bunch...so I don't know...maybe WOT 30-40 GPH?????

During my spring/fall trips running my Bertram back & forth to FL, I regularly burn 700-800 gallons per day

One gallon per minute per motor at cruise speed. More if someone tries to pass me, but not less than a full tank/250 gallons

Last fun run i topped off with 93 after leftover winter gas. 110 gallons, @ 3.24/ gal. Burned that off that run. Due to fill up, soon at around 4.10 for 89. I'm close to 50 gals/hr @ 60 mph cruise, Merc Bulldogs.
