Fuel gauge question

[choppywaters]

Is it normal for the fuel gauge needle to bounce around while under way. We were out yesterday for the first time and I noticed it bouncing between 3/4 to just under 1/2. The tank was just over half full.

normal... This is a boat, not a car. Fuel gauges are there to tell you if its full (pegged on F), or empty (no longer moving) Anything else just means you have fuel in there.

The fuel gauge will always be wrong, in addition to bouncing around. The trick with boats is to learn what the bouncing actually means, on your boat.
