When I got my boat (1999 DA330) in 2003, the dealer said that I can count on a gallon per hour and to run it all the time, even underway.
I had problems with the hydrilla in the Potomac clogging the inlet and the strainer. I fried an impeller or two for that reason. I had the inlet hose...
Thanks for the responses. I spent this weekend scrubbing my carpets. Way to hot and muggy for much else on the outside. I am still debating the re-carpet issue. Maybe I'll take it one section at a time. If I do, I'll add to this post all the issues that arise.

You are right, it's just the cover. Errrrrr I thought I got lucky there for a second. If anyone has the 7.4L manual, send me the link.
Anyway, my first day on this site and I'm working on the signiture thing and avatar. Let's see if it works this time...
