Real World Fuel Consumption on 263 and 293....post 'em up

[Big Block Power]

I think on the open ocean or something like that is not about the money it's planning your next fuel stop?
I go a day of use with the boat then need to fill up.

Right but what size tank does your 220 have? 40-50gal? Plus I assume that means a ton of water sports

263 and 293 will have at least a 77gal tank. So just cruising you should be about to go 150 knots or more on a tank. I doubt she is planning on going 75 miles out from the shore.

Correct. The way each of us use the boat is so totally different. I can't think of a time where we just jump in the boat and cruise. Early spring late fall but that's about it. It's all about swimming and rubbing and having fun. Fill the tank each time we head to the lake. 50 gals. Prob. A weekend. But hey who's counting.

Old post but my 293 with twin 5.7Gsi gets 2 MPG @ 30 MPH (15 GPH).

Nice pos! That’s better than most single engine 27-29 ft boats.
