Capt. Brad,
The official CSC web site flow meter indicates that the members of the site consume an average of 2.5 gallons of various consumable fuel per hour at 3000 RPM. This predicts a range of 1.7 boat shows per year with a 25% reserve.
The younger memebers seem to have slightly higher consumption due to the higher RPM's they tend to run.
The one statistical exception is Finster, who consumes 1.65 gallons per day in the summer and a paultry .005 in the winter. Although with the addition of his 3rd child, he has been converting to a much higher octane. He hopes to install flowscan in the the spring to bring this anomoly under control...
