Does anyone know how much it’ll cost in diesel to take a Sunseeker Predator 60 Yacht out for 1/2 a day?

We’ve been offered a load of this yacht for the day in France which would be amazing but we’re a bit terrified that it’ll cost a fortune in diesel to take it out for the afternoon. We’ve heard horror stories of thousands of Euros! Wondering if anyone knows how much it’ll be?

At a speed of 20 knots or so, with the generators running you can expect to burn about 130 or more gallons per hour. At a price of a little less than $3.00 US. figure roughly $400 dollars per hour. But, the good news is that you can have a ton of fun at the dock! The Predator can reach speeds of 40+ MPH. and use 300 gal. per hour.so those horror stories are true, but you need to understand you might have quite a few people on the boat. It’s like a little cruise line. If you took 30 friends out on a couple 40′ boats it would be almost the same fuel cost. I hope this helps.
