You are correct, she'll go 70mph with 150 gals of fuel and six people and a case of beer in just about any water. :partyguy:Quote:

She's got a 160 gal tank, but I rarely let it get under a 1/4 tank, it's safer that way, it's got twin efi 502s, if I keep the rpms around 3,500 I can go around 110-120 miles or so depending on more much weight she's got in her.Quote:

At almost $5 bucks a gal that was a expensive lunch that day.........yikes.
