pleasure boat operating costs?

Any idea's how much gas a 18' pleasure boat with standard sized outboard motor costs to run on a lake?

yeah it costs me around $30 for fuel for my 17' running around 3-4 hours but that = about 6-7 hours on the lake.

Under normal use, a tank of gas will run a boat's motor at cruise for about 6 hours. Assuming a 28 to 30 gallon tank. Do the math at whatever you are paying for gas & oil.

for skiing and running around, probably $40.00 a afternoon
