    If you were to estimate and compare gas mileage between this 19ft 1986 Cobalt with a 5.7 litre vs. a boat like this 17.5ft Caravelle with a 3.0 litre, what would you say? I would much rather have the cobalt because it looks like a much more seaworthy boat and I'd like to do some ocean fishing. What would you say about the speeds of the boats?
