[C320-list] FW: Fuel Consumption on the yanmar

[Karl Mielenhausen _/)]

I have a neat little Excel spreadsheet set up based upon the 3GM30 fuel consumption data from the Yanmar site, along with my observed speeds under power....

I've only had 3 trips to the pump since I bought the boat last September and have burned between .40-.74 gph per fill-up. (the .74 included a lot of motoring at 3400 rpm).

Feel free to modify for your boat and prop combo.

At the risk of sounding like a power boater has any one ever calculated the<br>GPH of the Yanmar at 3K<br><br><br>
