Anybody have any actual numbers on the 305 with the F350's yet? Was wondering the difference of my boat with the 250's......and those with the 350's?

350's

0.55mpg.........WOW!!!! Thats no fun......that's what I was wondering, with the F350's what kind of actual fuel mileage I would get out of my 305. When we bought the boat I was worried about getting the F350's with them being so new an all, I was also worried about the added 500-600lbs of weight that would be added by putting the 350's. By the way the 250's push it just fine and in good conditions, fully loaded I get 1.2mpg and the 250's are nearly 100 hours trouble free......I think I made a wise choice. I had just wondered if anybody had test drove or owned the 305 with 350's and what they thought about it......?
