I would run it around 5700 Larry, not over. Run her around 4500 RPMs and fuel consumption will go WAY down. My 200 loves gas but if I keep it around 4000 it will run 40 or so and not burn near the fuel. Ran from from Bryant to the main point in Grenada and back on less than 3 gallons of fuel last summer bunch of times. Fuel prices will rip ya a new one for sure.
