ya, I'm retired and living on fixed income, can't afford the push either so just gonna have a little fun fishing with the grand kids and like i said, got a great deal so will be willing to passit along for a good deal too. Sooner or later someone will want it.

For 2 strokes engines 10% is too conservative, usually 12%, fuel calculations are based with engine running at max wot factory stated numbers on flat calm waters. You could back down throttle to maintain good plane burning much less fuel than running at constant wot.

Happy Boating
