My buddy down at the lake told me your best mileage is in gear, at idle cruising along like a canoe. Is that true?
I argued that from what I have read it's the sweet spot up on a plane with the throttle cut back as much as possible. Seems to me that it would be terrible mileage because you don't go straight when (off plane) weaving back and forth at idle because the boat is not built like a canoe or sail boat.
