Depends on the day or weekend. I like cruising mostly with the occasional tie up. I don't sit in 1 spot for more than a couple hours, I just enjoy driving my boat. With current prices it could be anywhere from $30 a day to $500 a weekend, especially if we are staying over night on the boat and need to buy gas on the water. I see too many people that spend every dollar they had on a twin engine boat and literally go 5 miles from the launch because they can't afford the gas, that's why I own a single. I usually laugh at these people as I'm passing them!

Just got back from the Toy Run boated 100 miles in 2 days. Got passed by every boat there. Spent 62.50 in gas. Drank for three days spent 100 in beer and liqueur. Met some awesome people. Had a blast. That is what boating is about.

I don't like to fill the tank unless I am doing a poker run but like to keep it around a 1/2 a tank. So I thow about 100 at it a day so about 200 to 300 a weekend on average but the the most in a day was 500

I have put $1000.00 in Black Thunder of hi test when on the water on several occasions. It would get about 2/3 to 3/4 of a 280 gallon tank. I don't have it any more. My 23 Concept with 225 Optimax maybe $300.00 a year.
