And now for news that most everyone (except me) knows.....

These boats use a lot more fuel when towing tubes/skiers/wake boarders 3 days in a row....<<sigh>>

(and weekends are a good time to get a tow to the gas station)

Think of all the fuel you saved while being towed

so either your eyes are broken or your fuel gauge is broken. which is it? haha kidding. it happens. Can you post up some pictures and dimensions of the bow inserts on your boat. Mine "previous owner said blew out on the why" and i want to make new ones.. mainly i want the have the middle joint seam in the factory location.. you the man.. you can PM me if you feel to do that.. But i assume more people on here desire the info as not a ton are still in existence.

Well, they are four winns VDO gauges so nothing works

I will try and get some measurements but the boat sleeps at the marina and don't know when I will get back for a few days.

I was just budgeting about 6-8 GPH when I think its a lot closer to 10-12, at least when pulling toys around,

I think this rig could have easily ripped your front cleats off (towards each other). Of course you were towing slow, but I would still tie to the bow eye.

ps. The cushions look good. I have the bow fillers, but have not tried them yet.

rpengr - no need to try just mail them to me thanks

also agree i would not have towed from those cleats always from the bow eye.

the first thing i did was ditch the VDO gauges. only my volt meter worked, the speedo only worked from 40+ and would peg.. get you a nice set of Faria gauges they are top notch quality. I love love love mine.
