2007 Bayliner 288 Discovery fuel consumption

[NigelPoole]

I've recently taken ownership of a 2007 Bayliner 288CB Discovery with a Cummins Mercruiser 4.2L TD 250HP engine. Does anyone have any average fuel consumption figures for this engine in this boat?

yes here it is below

Bayliner 288 Classic 2006 Boat Information Guide (printed for Bayliner salespersons) has the following info on the 288 Classic with the 4.2 Merc diesel D-Tronic Bravo III (250 HP).

Cruise mph 25.7 mph (11.3 gph) 21knots

WOT mph 32.1 mph (15.3 gph) 28knots

Max cruising range 231 miles

Cruise load weight 11154 lb.

Hope this helps

Those figures are likely to be US gallons, so 4 litres rather than 4.54.

1 us gallon = 3.78 litres
