[QUOTE="bassboy1, post: 74188, member: 55"] Like the past two folks said, an underpowered boat will use a LOT more gas than one maxed out. The smaller motor is just having to struggle more, and take longer to get from point a to point b. As far as motors of the same size, as opposed to the upgrade, you will certainly save fuel, but likely not enough to justify the cost over an older one if your ONLY criteria is cheaper in the long run.
