My gas bill....running about 35-40mph is out of this world. If I run WOT....then I get about an hour before my tank is empty. Not much fun at all. Last weekend, my gas bill on the boat alone was over $75.00 and that was fishing for 6 hours for 2 days. Out of those 12 hours fishing....I ran the motor maybe 2 - 2 1/2 hours. Trolled the rest. I know I'm blessed, and not trying to complain...but it has it's setbacks too.
