How much fuel are you guys burning per hour during normal skiing condition in a 2004 Outback? We are mostly slaloming around 28 to 30 mhp. I have the feeling I'm burning way to much and not sure what to do about it.

We just bought the boat after it sat for 3 years, we have done a lot of work on it to get it back to "as good as new" shape. BUT after using it only a few hours I have the feeling we are burning close to 9 gallons per hour?? I was expecting 6 to 7 gallons an hour during normal skiing. The motor runs beautiful and only has 185 hours on it.

Any suggestion on where to start looking?

Thank for helping A newbie!
