2012 nitro z6 gas mileage?

junyaah · June 10, 2012, 06:38:50 PM

I have searched all over google and for some reason i cant seem to find the gas mileage on a 2012 nitro z6. Does any one know the answer to this and any other specs to this boat?

I think they're usually expressed in gallons/Hour not miles/ gallon. I THINK. Not sure. Try searching that. Sorry that's all I can contribute

i have tried every thing i can think of to type into google haha. This must be classified information because i can find nothing other than the top speed of 50-55 mph. I am just curious to what range i will be able to travel because im sure i will just run her up the lake n river as far as i can.

Also depends on the outboard. What outboard are you getting?

the 115

Nitro has a merc on it but maybe they put a 4stroke on???

As was stated its GPH gallons per hour you should find some info on the merc page but it will be general at best. With boats there is so much that can change from different boat hills, weight loaded in the boat, wind, current and temps "it will be better on cold air and water - motors runs better on cold air and prop has less slip on cold water" then you have prop size, pitch 3 or 4 blade SS or Aluminium and if the boat is under powered, mid power or maxed out. Like I said there is just way to many things to factor in so you won't find a sticker like on a car/truck that tells you what to expect.

WOT which of 6000rpm it gets about 4 mpg. Cruising speed of around 5500 it gets about 4.3 mpg. So you can guess between 4 and 4.5 mpg.....

Now that is a 4 strokem

Thank you Ron. That answered my question. Yeah i searched for hours trying to get a general idea of what to expect and around how far i could travel on a tank of gas. I could find nothing. I guess I will find out with experience. Should probably keep an eye on my gas guage haha. Thanks for all the help.

Sure thing it's exciting getting a new boat and always better to ask questions before rather than after its to late
