How This Calculator Works
This tool estimates fuel consumption, cost, and CO₂ emissions for popular Pursuit Boats based on your entered distance and fuel type. These center console and offshore boats run primarily on gasoline-based marine engines.
Fuel Calculation Formula:
Fuel Used = Distance × Consumption Rate (liters per nautical mile)
CO₂ Emissions = Fuel Used × Emission Factor
Emission Factors:
- Gasoline: 2.32 kg CO₂/liter
- E10: 2.18 kg CO₂/liter
