      wow your the first one ive ever heard say that the biggest complaint i get from the python owners is how much gas it sux down. they love the sound and power but they always cry about how much gas it sux. i sell those monster racks all the time. i had one set go bad and they took care of them for me no questions asked.

        Im not complaining or crying about gas used in the PYTHON.
        I said NOT BAD ON GAS EITHER..For that amount of POWER.
        ,,,,,,,Who cares what gas cost.........And don't need any racks........

              rocco i got that you were not but your the first one ive ever heard say that. the boats i service love the engines they just really hate the fuel consumption maybe fuel cost is more important to them, wich does make me wonder why they bought the python. and on the racks no thats the samething i sell them for. PS rocco what do you burn in terms of gallons per hour? and how much ballast/weight do you carry? if you dont mind me asking just to compare to the ones i see. thanx

                i will second the motion on not minding the gas. who cares, I love the motor and would not go back. every Nautique I have ever owned sucked gas. I have no idea about gph, I go by the FPH rating, Fun Per Hour.......

                  This is still the cheapest entertainment you can buy. Think about having your family out on the water. All the money is spent once you leave the dock. There is no shopping center or mall that will suck the money out of your wallet when all the women are on the boat.

                  Now you can think about how much you save every day you are on the water burning gas..
