The boston whaler web site post numbers for twin verado 175's and the 150 250 200 also the 225 opti. The 175 was the fastestest and the best fuel economy even better than the twin 150 or single 250(fuel economy). Those numbers are about the same as what I have seen with my limited experience on this boat which is lighter and has a stepped hull for better performance. Top speed is 55 light on a good day and 34mph about 12 gph. On a canyon trip of about 100 miles out and 50 trolling at 10mph for 5hrs and 100 back total 250total burn was 120 gallons. seas were 2 to 4. About 2 miles a gallon considering a high speed troll at slow speed troll one engine at idle .5 gallons an hour.
I have seen this boat in person, twice. Once at Three Belles Marina where I actually pulled over to check it out. It was also being serviced at Ocean performance this fall.
This is an exceptionally well built and beautyful vessel! Good luck with the sale.
