How Much Gas

[GLF]

I would like to know how many gallons of fuel/gas everyone went through in their boat last year. Please include the size of the boat and how big the motor(s) are. Also include the number of times the boat was used if possible.

I have a 32' with twin 350 Chevys. I ran about 120 total outings with an average usage of 50 or so gallons per......

Of all the stuff I log, this is not one, so a guesstimate is what I'll reply with. Hope this helps.....

20' 4 Winns/4.3 185 Mercruiser 26 gallon tank.

30 give or take outtings. 1/2 tank give or take every time.

Is that what you meant?

I never paid much attention to the gas. I get about 3 1/2 8 hr trips on one tank. This is with a 17' Lund and a 140 4 stroke. But, gas is the cheap part of the fishing. Filling the boat with gear and the boat itself is where the costs come in.

221 Islander, 130hp merc cruiser 46 gal tank. between 10 and 15 gallons a trip depending on how far we run.

20.5" Thompson/ 170 hp mercruiser/ 60 gal tank. Seemed to go through right around a quarter tank per trip depending on the runs and trolling time.

Here's a neat site that gives all the local gas prices, updated daily.

I run a 19.5 sea nymph with a 90hp Evinrude (1989). I burned right at 180 gallons of fuel for 32 trips. She is a sipper!

We have 2 boats, and between towing and trolling, it's at least $90-$100 per trip per boat.....
