[QUOTE="Weldorthemagnificent, post: 462433, member: 22139"] My mileage rule of thumb is one gallon per hour per 10 hp at wide open throttle. When I went from a 20 to a 35 I thought I'd see a big difference but turns out wide open throttle is considerably faster so it doesn't take as long. There is a difference but not as big as I had thought. Bolt that 40 that you already own on the boat. Once you wipe that poop eating grin off your face, if the fuel economy is putting you in the poor house, I'm sure you can find a guy with a 30 who'd be happy to swap.
