Hey great vid... I was wondering how many gallons does your boat hold?... And did y'all take any extra gas?... Cause we have a 28 footer that holds 205 gal. And we always wondered if we could make it out that far... We have made it out to Tequila once before.

My boat held 190 gals. We took no extra fuel. I had 4 stroke 150's and my fuel burn was 1.7. We burned 162 gals, never shut the engines off and ran her kinda hard out and in when it was smooth. I had 2 yrs of knowing what my exact fuel burn was so I knew we were safe. What kinda mpg you guys getting? We just got a World Cat so look for more vids this year
