    Goldie - it is amazing how little throttle adjustment can improve/decrease fuel usage. With the instant reading from the EP-20 interface I am changing the way I used to drive a boat. Previously I just did it by ear so to speak and placed the throttles were I thought was best. By driving with gauge I cruise a little slower than I used too but the $$$ benefits are worth it.

    You'd have some big tides up there to battle against too - the difference in going with/against the tide is substantial.

    This was only tested out last weekend on the neap tides and it ws as flat as a tack. So real there should not be that much of a difference.
