My 240sx was averaging about 2mpg according to the display (im not sure if that is accurate at all?) so I cant imagine it being TOO much worse...1.5 mpg? haha

Dual SVHOs could burn 42 gallons per hour at full throttle. Max speed would have to be over 60 MPH just to reach 1.5 MPG at full throttle.

At 8 PM Eastern, 7 PM Central, 6 PM Mountain and 5 PM Pacific the NDA will expire and a new forum will show up with all the 2017 info that we have.

That's 1 AM for @Britboater . It's 10:45 PM there now, how about we just brief him on what to expect before he retires.

 

[subysti]

How about the cabin cruisers they have in japan??

 

[Speedling]

I think i just figured out one item!
Afraid to speculate but going off the hint from bruce, i am pretty sure i can be excited about it! I am NOT SAYING an exciter model...... or am i?

 

[bronze_10]

I'm still hoping for the warp drive with a wake wedge.. that should make a pretty decent wake...

 

[buckbuck]

Oh please please please Yamaha, can we have white lower hulls again?

 

[Evil Sports]

Buck why do you want white lowers, Im so happy mine in dark so you cant see the water stains

 

[buckbuck]

Hmmm...I thought the black made stains more apparent. Please correct me if I am wrong.
By the way, does black show scratches when you float your boat in 8" of water?

@buckbuck the black E-Series have white lowers. I like it because it doesn't make my 2011 look so dated.

It also makes it easier to see if the boat has been run aground

Since the 1990's - if that is really accurate and a true statement, I have a good idea also. They will address a large segment of the new boaters market.

This is exactly what I was going to say. They have new boats with keel that you cannot whip around, so they need to compensate by releasing a "new" model that would slide sideways, which some seem to really enjoy.

1 hour!

Stains not so much, but scratches from sand on the bunks, yes. I kinda miss my old boat's white lower hull, it was easier to remove stains than buff scratches...

 

[Julian]

The colored lower hulls do show scratches more easily.....I'd prefer a white lower hull....but I'll put up with mine! LOL

It was 4 inches, get it right And.. it wasn't floating

 

[RiverRat]

@Julian
get back to your computer and finish up those videos.
I wonder if Yamaha will force me to upgrade to a new 212X?

I predict a 2017 222x in Jim's driveway by April, with the '08 212x headed to Texas, for when he visits!

 

[msavold]

Since the 90's? AHHHHH. THEY FOUND MY WIFE'S SEX DRIVE!!!!!!

Jeez @subysti , way to get me in trouble! First because the water I was drinking went up my nose and then, before I even realized what was happening, because I had to explain to the Admiral what was so funny!
