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

Get around 2.5KM per litre.

Sadly my card doesn't work for unleaded  

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.
