Yeah Danny that's as good as it will ever get with a light load. You add tackle, full coolers, 3/4+ tank of gas, four to five people, plus all the crap women have to bring along and it drops rather dramatically. Last year in rough water, fully loaded heading out dolphin fishing, keeping just off plane and "plowing through" the 4 - 6' waves I looked back and could still see land, checked the GPS and had gone ten miles from the inlet. Then checked the fuel flow gauge and I had used a smooth 9.8 gallons. OUCH!!
