sundancer 330 fuel

[jacknichols5]

I am planning on buying a dancer 330 with 6.2 out drives I am trying to get a feel on fuel consumption. I will be crusing from stuart florida east to the bahammahs I guess about 90 miles i am anticipating on approx 90 gal of fuel or more/less. i expect I will have 220 gal fuel, 30 gal water, 2 people, normal gear, clean bottom, and probably 3600 rpm at 22-24 kph does this sound about right?

6.2s really are not much to push that boat. Think you mpg would have been better with 8.1 MPIs. Just keep your foot out of it.

My 340 DA V-Drives with 8.1s goes 24mph at 3200-3300 RPM in a moderate sea.

That seems about right. I have 31' Sundancer and I am getting about 1-11/2 when I am cruising the Great South Bay. Have a great trip and " be safe out there ".
