During normal vessel operation, adjusting engine RPM to your maximum MPG (MPL) reading maximizes your fuel mileage.
Vessel trim, load, adjustment of trim tabs, water currents and weather conditions also affect your fuel consumption. For similar
operating conditions, dramatic changes in MPG (MPL) readings indicate possible mechanical malfunction or excessive bottom
fouling and should be investigated.
Your current MPG (MPL) and GALLONS (LITERS) readings allow you to quickly and easily estimate your current maximum
cruising radius. For safety, allow a margin of error when calculating your next fuel stop.
