- In this video I test how far the Orkney Strikeliner 16+ can go on a single 12 litre tank of unleaded fuel. The engine is a Honda 25hp 4 stroke and there is one person on board. I was able to travel 24 nautical miles on 12 litres so it makes the maths easy. It does 2 nautical miles per litre.
Great video,thanks for sharing
Well that's shocked me as I had the distance at 33/34 ml, reason why i got to this figure is I have a fast liner 19 with a Honda 50 on it and that will do 55mls on a 22ltr tank and that's running at 20-24 knott,s so that works out at 2,5mls per ltr and TBH I thought yours would be a bit better,,
Sounds like you’ve got enough power to get on the plane, whereas I’m always limited to semi-displacement - only halfway onto the plane. It’s definitely a lot faster and cheaper if more of the boat is out the water!!
you do have to factor in the tide and wind as you would use less fuel when running with the tide and more fuel if your pushing against the tide stronger the tide more push needed
etc also if the weight load on the boat is more ,then that will effect your fuel consumption . someone here said put a 50hp on the boat however these boats are not rated for that size engine . a mate of mine had a 30hp on his strikeliner and ok yes it do go a little faster but always with the bow well up and out of the water , it looked very unstable tbh.
Wrong every stable

She is very underpowered which will be giving you bad fuel mileage. If you can't get on the plain then you will use 3 times less fuel. I'd say at least a 50hp for that boat.
The Strikliner isn't a planing hull, and are rated for 25hp.
30hp on my friends strikeliner and goes well! I’ve got the 520 with a 30 four stroke and is doing 18knts at 4500 revs
Wrong 22 knots sem dispnmane se9mi o la8nyibg humml 22 knots
