====================================

That is excellent fuel economy for a boat that size going 19 kts.
Most Hatt 53s would be burning over 40 gph.


It really is and it verified the fuel burn graph provided by Navigator when
I bought the boat. I was a little dubious of it at first but made several
checks on our trip to Florida when we would spend 8 hours or so at an
average of 19 knots. The graph was right on the money.
