i dont have hard numbers but i have an 88 sailfish 255 with twin honda 150s. great setup despite what alot of guys will speculate. it seems to get a little over 2mpgs and people ive talked to with 150 4 strokes claim right around 2 as well. i am a little under propped with 3x14.5x15 SSand can reach high 30s, nearly 40mphs, planes off in low teens, typically i cruise around 18mph. i like its performance. they weigh 485lbs vs the 450 that an 88 johnson 200 would weigh.
