I own the 190 center console 2001 SeaPro. Does anyone know the fuel capacity for this boat? I was told it holds 33 gallons by the previous owner but it was only an estimate. I appreciate any info as soon as possible. I am planning a 50 mile offshore trip.

I am not sure on your tank size... But if this boat is new to you I would think it a good idea to run it around for a while. Just to make sure it has no bugs before you go on a 50 mile run with her... Just a thought. Good luck and stay safe.

Have had the boat 3 yrs and have done a lot of in-shore trips at 10 and 12 miles and have done 2 at 25.The previouse owner told me it had a 110 mile range but never told me at what speeds!!the Mercury 125hp has 4 cylinders and 4 carbs but only runs on 2 at less than 2000 rpm!!Anyway i hope to be able to determine fuel capacity with-out running out of fuel!Thanks for your reply and wish You well!!

Hmm, T-topless' site says the 2001 190cc had a 53 gallon tank. I know when I pulled the fuel sender access plate on my deck there was a small label that told me my capacity. You might try that. Otherwise, you could always take a 6 gallon portable tank with you on a nearshore trip and intentionally run out of fuel in your main tank to know for sure. Regardless, I agree the worst time to find out you have a 33 gallon tank is when you are 50 miles offshore... Edit: Since you are going that far offshore, I'm guessing you stated correctly that you have the 190cc and not the 1900cc bay boat that does have a 33 gallon tank.... heres a link, scroll down to find your boat.... www.rnr-marine.com/SeaPro.shtml

Freezerfiller is probably correct on your size for the fuel tank because I have a 1999 180cc and it contains a 42 gallon tank and since the 190cc is bigger hull I'm guessing it'll have a larger tank for fuel. I have a 2003 75hp four stroke on the back and when I went out for mini lobster season I easily did 20 miles with a quarter of the tank, it cost around $120 to fill up.

Iguana, a 75 hp? Can you get on plane? Just askin, that's small for that heavy boat.

Yes I can get on plane with the 75HP outboard. I'll admit that It's just enough, if the HP was any less I wouldn't be able to.

I was just curious? I have seen the 180s with 90 hps but never a 75. I have a 115 and often wish I had a little more. But that's how it goes. However most times a nice cruising speed feels good. Bet you float high though?
