⛽ Fuel Economy & Practical Costs

Boating fuel economy varies based on speed, load, and conditions — but jet propulsion boats like Yamaha’s are efficient compared to traditional prop boats because they reduce drag and are easier to handle in shallow water. Yamaha engineers their engines for good efficiency and smooth acceleration, helping you get more out of each gallon.

Typical fuel fill costs (approximation):

  • 19-foot boats (~40 gal tank): If fuel is ~$3.50/gal → ~$140 for a full tank

  • Larger models with bigger tanks will cost more, but offer longer cruising range

Actual costs depend on local fuel prices and usage.
