 40XD Fuel Burn Info Needed I've searched, and about all I can find is 35 and 37 fuel burn posts.
I want to run about 35 or so miles one way to fish some spots that I used to use my bay boat for. About how many gallons of fuel do I need to have onboard to safely travel 80-100 miles round trip?

Re: 40XD Fuel Burn Info Needed Are you running full throttle the whole way there? I ran about 30 miles with a similar set up and estimated about 6 MPG running mostly wide open. I knew I had about 5ish gallons of gas in the tank and ran out about 300 yards from the boat ramp returning.

Re: 40XD Fuel Burn Info Needed yep, I'll have it in the corner at least the whole way there and back. I"m thinking 16 gallons at least, but I have no clue how much fuel it burns. I only have 3 hours on it.

Re: 40XD Fuel Burn Info Needed Expect similar usage to the 37 and you'll be close enough. When you get to half of your fuel onboard used, stop. Lol

Re: 40XD Fuel Burn Info Needed If you have a portable 6 gallon and it’s starts to bounce around, you have about 1.75 beers before the motor cuts out at WTFO.
