What fuel useage

Looking at buying a more comfortable boat prior to retirement. I was wondering what sort of fuel bills I could expect from outboards in the 90 to 115 hp range

I'm more suprised you bother to even check fuel usage
Give a man a mask, and he'll show you his true face...
The older you get the more you realize that no one has a f++king clue what they're doing.
Everyone's just winging it.

Jokes aside all fuel usage and km's travelled are logged each time we fill up and recorded as L used per km and compared to similar vehicles in the fleet so any filling of a second vehicle will be instantly discovered and goodbye employment. We are also picked at random to send in a pic of our ODO to make sure it matches what we enter at the bowser.
