PENN YAN Predator

[trenchfisherman]

Just purchased a Predator with twin 270 crusaders with carbs. What should i expect for fuel consumption at cruise and trolling on a single engine? Thanks!

I called about that boat they day you bought it!!

[trenchfisherman]

Sorry about that we actually stalled a few weeks before pulling the trigger. What i love about the boat is that it doesn't even have a hole on it where riggers were mounted and its pretty darn clean for an '86.

yea, from what I here it was used for the occasional perch fishing and never saw a wave over 3ft.

Good Luck with her. It looked to be a REAL clean boat and a very good deal.

Thanks! Gonna be a nice step up from the old bayliner trophy. Also going to be a long winter now since we are going to keep it in storage up there til spring.

Billy and I went and looked at it back in August. I hope you had it surveyed.

stay out of the four barrels and you will get surprisinglygood milage out of her.i don't troll with the big motor often but would guess about a gallon per hour when i do.as close as i can figure 1.8 mpg @3000 rpm.need to get a gph meter to be more exact.
