Going out tuna fishing off of Newport, OR in a Conquest 28 with twin 225 Verados.
Full fishing report and, more importantly, a fuel efficiency report.
The Whaler performance report on the Conquest 28 says 1.5 mpg in the 25-30 mph range. Ocean is supposed to be flat on 31st so we should be able to maintain 25 mph. Going about 40-50 miles out for 60 deg tuna water.
