[QUOTE="SDMF, post: 80315, member: 412"] That's the biggest difference I notice going from an AL boat w/150 4-stroke to a glass boat w/200. I can run 6-7MPG FASTER in the glass boat that's 600# heavier w/50 more HP for the same mileage I used to get in the AL boat. I can run 40MPH getting 3.8-4.0MPG and to get that with my AL boat I used to run 32-34MPH. Both boats get 2.7-3.0MPG @ WOT but now I'm running 50-53 vs. 42-45. I suspect most of this is due to a more efficient hull. [/QUOTE]
