That's one hell of a nice "first powerboat" Looks like it moves out . Ask him how much oil it burns . and how often the out drives have been rebuilt. Nice Boat .
cigs are cool just because of the history of cig IMOP . But fountains are nicer IMOP look better and have more luxuries .Just my opinion

Depending on the day it should be no problem. I went last weekend and it was flat like a lake. Ran over to the island at 75 or so and never aired it out at all. The fuel capacity on your boat should be fine if I keep my rpms under 4000 I can go round trip from Huntington Beach on 60 gallons 4500 or more its more like 85 and its about 62 miles round trip. But I have two engines drinking the fuel as compared to your one so you should be able to beat my fuel consumption number by about 30% or so.

The engines burn no oil they are dam near brand new and run great. The boat has no problem running in the high 80s with a full load of fuel and people.
