The boat does 10~11 mph@ wot depending on conditions. Fuel economy estimate 25 mpg based upon Iphone GPS and the assumption that the tank was full when I picked it up at the dealer. __________________ 2016 Tesla Model X 2022 Sprinter Gone 2012 Tesla Model S P85 Gone 2013 Nissan LEAF SV 2012 Nissan LEAF SV 6 speed ALH TDI Swapped in to a 2003 Jetta Wagon
