Yes, glad it wasn't the one of me being towed into the spring.

We ran out a second time just before the fish camp, 4 gallons wasn't enough from the Glenn.

First time in my life I ran out of gas twice in one day.

With the 300XS on my Grandsport, I can cruise 65-80 MPHGPS from the Palatka downtown ramp to Silver Glenn and back [48 miles each way] on just 14 gallons [less than half a tank]. The no wake zone at the Glenn uses 1 1/2 gallons of that.

how big is your tank?
I always used a small 12 gal race tank and carried a 5 just in case, Just had two saddle tanks made about 35 gal total they will feed a 5 gal surge tank in the center, be my first time with a 300 Optimax always had a 225 OMC on my salt water boat never wanting to subject my 2.5 stuff to salt, I always had range anxiety, when I build in Astor I plan on a 500 gal tank for marine 90.Last edited by CUDA; 09-18-2021 at 08:31 PM.

Where's everyone at today...? I'm at The "Porta Life 2" on the St. John's river watching all the boats go by while I mow grass! Wish I could join you all!

That much weight makes a lot of difference. I would have a very hard time getting on a plane even with just my PP 28" Drag 4 prop. When I was at the 2018 Tennessee Ally rally I managed to make it to a plane with 4 adults and run at 90 GPS, but getting on a plane was very "Iffy".
