High fuel consumption
#4
What is your RPM @ WOT.  Should be 4200-4600 with boat trimmed out.  Less than 4200 RPM & your are over propped.  More than 4600 RPM and you are under propped.   I own the same boat & fuel consumption on a smooth lake is 2 MPG.   In rough water with hull pushed down (tabs down & prop all the way down) to keep the bow from slamming, you will get less than 1.5 MPG.  Its a heavy hull & under powered with the single 260 HP engine.
