[Rhodes22-list] miles per gallon

[R22RumRunner at aol.com]

The owners manual will tell you gallons per hour based on full throttle. I  
usually run at 2/3 throttle, about 3/.4 gallon per hour for a Tohatsu 8  BHP.

Depends,

Rules of thumb, gallon per hour. Leaves some room for  reserves.

Clean hull, low winds and waves, engine in tune, etc.. and  biggest factor
about 1/2 knot under hull speed, about 1/2 to 2/3 a gallon  per hour, but
your millage may vary, so use the above rule until you  calculate it out for
yourself.

Does anyone know about how many miles per gallon the Rhodes  22 will get with
a Yamaha 9.9?
