Default Re: seacraft 23 savage inboard

A small block will burn about 8+ gph. at cruise regardless of what it is in.

The reason I say this is the two boats that I have owned that had small block gmc 350 where completely different but yet they used the same amount of fuel.

One was a 24' Searay that cruised at 20-25. The other was a 30' Alura that cruised at 12-15 and weighed around 10,000 #. I put on over 2000 hours between the two and was surprised years later when I checked my log books that they were both about the same in gph.
