Tips for Reducing Fuel Usage
Slower speeds on the water will reduce use.
The proper use of trim tabs reduce drag, especially while accelerating up to planing speeds.
Minimize the amount of time that you idle at the dock.
Make sure the hull is clean.
* Captain's Cove Marine offers a variety of cleaning and detailing products.
Don't under-power your boat. It is important that you have enough motor to handle the load.
Check your propeller. If your boat is slow "out of the Hole" or lacks top-end speed, you may have the wrong propeller.
A well-tuned engine uses less fuel.
* Remember your 20, 50, 100, and 200 hour check ups.
Use the grade of gasoline specified by the engine manufacturer. |
