I have noticed that I save a lot of gas by backing off the trottle once I get on a plane. I seen too many boats plowing water this weekend, its costing them much in gas and making a big wake. Perhaps they should reduce the speed on the whole lake to a no wake zone. People would be out on the lake moving about, and then they would save gas while they enjoy the scenery.
