providing 1050 hp at 100 gallons per hour is pretty efficient. HP takes fuel, regardless of whether its 2 stroke, 4 stroke, FI, DFI, or carb. If you want to go fast, its going to cost

It wasn't as fast as you would think. It was a heavy boat. I can't remember how fast exactly. I think low 50's. But the roar of those V-8's really sound great.
