I have a Mercury Classic 50 - 45 hp. Just curious as to how much usage I should expect per gallon of gas.

Howdy, Kcogg. Depends on the boat, the prop and how you treat it.<br /><br />Red sky at night. . . <br />JB

Re: Gasoline

Thanks JB. I guess that information would be helpful. The boat is a 20' bass tracker pontoon boat. Mostly easy riding. occasionally will pull kids in tube.

Re: Gasoline

JB's right. But as a rule of thumb you should expect 10 pounds of fun per gallon of fuel. Adjust as required. <br /><br />Good luck!
