Default Re: Gas use 250hp on 23' SC

Gary,I've owned my boat for 20 years, I've had carbed 200's,a carbed 225,a 200 EFI, and the 225 Opti is the most economical motor of the bunch. The 200 EFI is a little better than tne carbed 200 and running at 4000 rpm it got 2 mpg. The carbed 225 couldn't get 1.5 mpg on it's best day. Your motor is 16 years old,if it runs good I'd run it until it dies. Why spend $15,000 to save on gas?
