Do not have a flowscan meter, so I cannot say what fuel burn was at WOT.

Guys - I am embarrassed. It seems I forgot to shut off the GPS app for the short ride home, and my Seafari numbers quoted above were recorded - on the trailer on the drive home!!! I have no idea how fast I went on the water! (maybe around 32-33 mph!)
It has been bothering me all week why the numbers seemed too good to be true....
