In these times the question os how much gas does it use!!

The Sea Ox now has a 175 and I will tell you I thought it was going to be way under powered, but to my surprise is goes pretty nice and uses crap for gas!

I have Merc 2.4 prop 15 x 15 1/4 I top out right at 30 knots and cruz all day at 25 knots.

Drove 20 mies out and back and trolled 5 hours, never shut the motor off for 6 1/2 hours and only used $32 in gas!! I forget what gas was selling for at that time?? Begining of November.

CB was with me and when I called him to tell him he was No way.

By the way CB did you ever pay me for gas that trip??
