[QUOTE="PSG-1, post: 295140, member: 6937"] Mine is a 1997 Duracraft 1648 SV, with a 160 HP Yamaha FXHO/MR-1 four-stroke engine, currently with 208 hours. Original configuration was with an Actic Cat/Tigershark 1000 cc engine. Utilizes a 1998 Yamaha XL1200W pump (155mm) Top speed is about 45 MPH, fuel consumption is about 3 GPH, or 5MPG, for average cruising speed. It needs 8 inches of water for static flow, and 4 inches to cross when on plane. Fuel capacity is 22 gallons, cruise range (conservatively) is about 80 miles. My boat has been on every stretch of river in northeast South Carolina, from Cheraw to Cape Romain and Bulls Bay, to Cherry Grove, the Black River, the Little Pee Dee, the Great Pee Dee, The North and South Santee, the Waccamaw, and the Sampit Rivers. In other words, I've taken it more places than I've ever taken every boat I've ever owned, combined. And I've had more fun with this boat than with any boat I've ever owned, including the little 14 foot Sea Doo Speedster with twin engines. [/QUOTE]
