It takes us about fifteen minutes to idle out to the Gulf, that's when it starts costing, if I keep the RPMs between 3-3.5k it's not to bad, but after that it sucks, for one of our normal offshore runs I'll burn through 120-130gals, the thing that sucks is when you don't trailer your boat you're stuck at the mercy of the marina's and gas is close to $5 bucks a gal on the water now for 90 oct.
You guys have to be using JP5 or something crazy like that.
My gas bill used to get a rest during the winter, not so much this past year or this up coming winter, but it's tons better than snow and ice.
