    fuel avarage

    I now have 114 hrs on my twins 50s . It seem that it is getting a little better on fuel . I keep only about 15 gallons of fuel, don't see the need of packing all that extra weight like I use to do when I first got my boat. Is it okay to leave the tanks 3/4 or so empty? I do have a water...

    I also had many many boats in my life time, and I hope to have a few more I am not trying to sell twins on any of your boats, if the shoe fit wear it .

    Singles versus Twins

    Hi LES, just finished reading your point of view about twins versus single, or single with kicker. The complexity of installing Twins versus Single is quit more involved I agree with you. Customers don't have to crawl under or put the hole for gauges on the wrong locations! All the customer...
