Welcome aboard, had 3 Bayliners before jumping ship to Carver. Nothing wrong with any of the Bays I owned just did not have any layout that suited our tastes/needs when we decided to upgrade. Plus we all know Carvers are so much better.

Welcome Aboard. Previous 5 times owner of a Bayliner. Had a Carver but downsized to a Stingray 182SC. Good luck with your Carver.

welcome aboard and welcome to the Carver family. my previous boat ownership also includes a couple of Bayliner's. My very first boat was a Bayliner and was the only boat that I've owned that I was the first owner.

Okay !! Here goes... Currently docking at cedar point in Sandusky Ohio. Great place to be but now heading to the flats in downtown Cleveland on the Cuyahoga. Incredible place for boating. Had my Bayliner there for years. Anyway, what would my approximate fuel usage be for my carver with twin 350s.. approx 100 nautical miles... Thanks.. Joe

When referencing "twin 350s", you should clarify if that's 350CI or 350HP, as there are engines referred to as both.
What speed are you going to be travelling?? That would make a huge difference in the fuel.
If at a "slower, comfortable cruise on plane", my guess would be 180 gal. But that's just a guess.
