Maximizing fuel

Article Abstract:

Maintaining regular tune-ups and keeping the boat clean will help boatowners reduce their fuel costs. It is important to keep the engine well-lubricated and free from dirt to reduce internal engine friction to lower fuel consumption. Fuel costs can also be reduced by operating at an optimum cruising speed.
