I have a 2022 C288 with dual Y250s. They are thirsty boys and currently seeing 22gph consumption at 4000 RPM- usually puts me at 30mph.
I've looked at the Sharrow's and they intrigue me as it will increase fuel efficiency ~16% based on similar boats. I plugged that into AI and asked what the ROI would be based on $10k (5k each), $5.50 per gallon gas and ~120 hours per year. It would take me four years to recognize the ROI. Based on previous experience and looking into the future I plan on keeping this boat well past four years.
The other benefit that is SUPER intriguing is the noise reduction: it is significant. This video is mind blowing: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b9a40Rs5CxE
I haven't seen anyone post results of putting Sharrow's on- any feedback is appreciated.
