The boat looks real nice Danny!! How's the new engine running??
I had one back in 1995, was on my new 23' Hydra-Sport, it was the 225 Evinrude Ocean Pro model, great engine had no problems with it except there are no gas stations out in the open water.....and with that engine you needed ALL the gas you could find!!!

Don –
The motor is running great! I put 25 gallons in yesterday, according to GPS I went about 22-23 miles. My fuel sending unit must have a bad ground because I'm not getting a good reading on the gauge..... I am wondering what kind of mileage I'm getting. I was thinking best case at around 3500 to 4000 RPM I would be getting close to 2 mpg. 15x15 prop may lower it?!

Super, happy to hear it's running good!!! Look forward to the LP gathering and seeing all the work you have done. As far as fuel mileage, the best thing I ever installed on my boat was a cheapie Northstar F-210 flow meter. Six or seven years ago you could get them for less than $200, and if you shopped on eBay sometimes $100, however for some reason they quit making them. If I had known they we going to discontinue them I would have bought every one I could get my hands on!!!!! Two for spares and the rest for friends. They do the two simple things I really care about....fuel flow in GPH and total which you can reset to zero when you want. Seeya soon.
