We ran the Tickfaw 200 Saturday in Lake Pontchartrain. The boat ran great and got the best fuel mileage I have ever seen in 100+MPH boat. We filled up before the run and launched on the south shore and crossed the lake and did all seven stops of the run. The last stop was at Charlie's Blood River Landing. At 8:30 pm we headed back to the south shore and only burned a total of 60 gal. 1/2 of a tank per motor.
Here are a few pictures of the interior.

Thanks for all the good comments.
Saturday we went to the lake and met Mark and Bev. They drove down from Tennessee too look at the boat. We went do some running around and crossed the lake and went to the north shore and had some lunch. We also did some testing when we crossed the lake. We had better then 3/4 of fuel in each tank (65 gal. each) and five people and all the gear for the day.
Here is some info. Running 15X32 three blade non-lab Mercury cleaver.
3000 RPM - 34 MPH - Fuel- 7.3 gal. per Hr. each motor
4000 RPM - 56 MPH - Fuel- 9.5 gal. per Hr. each motor
5000 RPM - 80 MPH - Fuel- 14.3 gal. per Hr. each motor
6000 RPM - 96 MPH - Fuel- 22 gal. per Hr. each motor
WOT 6300 RPM - 100 MPH on the rev-limiter did not look at the fuel.
All MPH was verified by Three GPS on board.

I been very busy and not so much time but I wanted to share some picture's from Destin, Fl that we took back in June. The boat ran great and got very good fuel milage.We did not burn a full tank of fuel. We stayed for ten days at Sand Destin and had a great time.
