Re: So, you think you know everything?
"The cruise liner, QE2, moves only six inches for each gallon of diesel that it"
This is true. I used to be a Merchant Marine and was on a 948' miltary supply ship, this ship could do 30+ kts.!
At full speed it would burn about 4,000 barrels a day!
1 barrel = 42 gallons = 168,000 gallons every 24 hrs!
Do the math, it comes out to just UNDER half a foot per gallon!
....and you think your carbed OB sucks fuel!
