I realize that all motors run differently, but I was just wondering if anyone has a rough idea of the mileage I should be getting with an 88hp motor running between 4500 - 5000 rpm. She's recently rebuilt and running great and I was wanting to take a longer than normal trip and considering fuel needs/ per mile for planning purposes. Thanks for any numbers.

You should use about 8 or 9 gallons per hour, depending on the boat. Of course, only you can figure out how far you make it in that hour..
