Or a lightweight 300. The crossflows are tough just very thirsty, I have a 90 horse and I swear it gets worse mileage than the 250 Opti does on a larger boat.

It probably does drink more than your OPTI does. I was shocked running mine on my V-20. I put in 40 gallons and it had about 6 gallons in it to start with. After 3 hours of break in I was on fumes.
