    I got a 225 merc on a 21ft liberator, and my gas milage is great.
    I can go from havasu channel to havasu springs and back on 1/2 tank of gas.

    Let me mention i cruse at 50 to 60 mph, a little over half throttle, and every once awhile full throttle for a couple minutes.
    Im sure if i stay off the gas, my gas milage would go up alot.
