i was looking at factory engine performance reports today and i found this and i thought it was interesting.

That's 4.6 mpg.

its a very rare scenario. but the boats are light with not alot of fuel. I thought it was interesting that the carbed engine was marginally lest fuel efficient but the top speed was alot faster and it planed off a half second sooner.
