Fuel Efficiency & Performance Data
Along with safety and performance Maritime was designed with fuel efficiency as a top priority.
Maritime’s unique hull design allows all models to plane at the low speed of 12-14 mph so instead of pushing through the water like a traditional deep V –hull, which requires more effort and burns more fuel, you can ride above the water at both low and high speeds with excellent fuel efficiency.
Also, since Maritime was designed for optimal performance with moderate sized outboards you won’t need to power your boat with more costly and thirsty higher horsepower motors. Although our 20’ models are rated up to maximum of 150 hp, you will find that many satisfied owners typically choose a 90 or 115 hp motor without sacrificing speed and performance. Our 23’ models have a maximum horsepower rating of 225 hp, but again many find it advantageous and cost effective to power their 23’ Maritime with a 150 or 175 hp motor.
Maritime Fuel Efficiency Overview*
| Maritime Model | Ave. Cruise Speed (MPH) | Miles Per Gallon | Gallons Per Hour | Ave. Range (Miles) |
| Models 20’ and Under | 18-24 | Greater than 6.0 | Less than 4.0 | 150-165 |
| 23’ Models | 24-30 | Greater than 3.2 | Less than 7.0 | 200-250 |
| 25’ Models | 28-32 | Greater than 3.0 | Less than 8.0 | 200-225 |
*The information above is a general overview based on multiple boat models and official performance testing results conducted by independent outboard manufactures. Motor brand, prop selection, horsepower and personalized boat configuration will all influence fuel efficiency results.
Maritime’s fuel efficiency is so good there is no need for large heavy fuel tanks; the typical range of a 20’ boat at cruise with average horsepower is 150-165 miles and the 23’ models have a range of 200-250 miles.
Take a look at the performance data associated with any of our models and you will be impressed with the results. Maritime- Designed from day one to be fuel efficient.
