This might upset you

[Pinnacle]

For those that are not aware, there is a poll currently running on Scuttlebutt on average fuel consumption per year. If you are of a delicate disposition, it might be best not to look........

Poll here http://www.ybw.com/forums/poll.php?pollid=4064&do=showresults

mmm. The exclamation after 1280l p.a leads me to suspect they dont really have a clue

They're just trying to wind us up

If I had spent the year being uncomfortable cold and wet and propped up against hard GRP at acute angles I would want to try and justify how much fuel I saved to.. :encouragement:

I guess I use 10,000 lt per annum or there abouts - 5 fill ups with the tank not empty but something under a quarter. Just a guess but I doubt it is much out.

We only got our current boat at the end of June and I think we've done about 6000 litres since then. Haven't used it much the last two months either.

That said, my previous yacht (Elan 40) used about 100l a year and the one before that about 30l, so I can see where they're coming from.
