I'd love to scale up to a bigger boat but don't know if I can justify the extra gas spend ($1.70/L at the dock!). What size boat/engine are you running and what's the fuel economy?
I run a 22' Hewescraft (aluminum) with a 135 hp main. At 4500 rpm I estimate 30 L / hr. This is at about 35 kph/ 22 mph/ 19 knots. 3mpg-ish. Definitely varies a lot with the rpm's.
