Not to mention how much oil they use if still oil injected. We had a PRO-LINE 231 with a 225 MERC on it. The engine wasn't really horrible on fuel as the boat got ok milage(roughly 1.5 KMPG), but the oil it used was UNREAL! It had a 125 gallon fuel tank and a 3 gallon oil tank, you would run out of oil long before fuel.
