[quote spacescape]I know large yachts take a lot of fuel to run. How many gallons of fuel does an aircraft carrier hold? Just wondering who has that kind of money to purchase a Air Craft Carrier.

when it was first on ebay, I took a printout to the bar. I think we tried to figure out the mpg as they listed the range, and fuel capacity. It was at least several hundreds of gallons an hour, at 30 knots.

Probably none, as they are nuclear carriers, no?

that one was a fossil fuel WW II surplus carrier I believe. Details in my link.

And you think Hummer gets bad fuel economy. We are talking meters per gallon when we mention MPG..

Most old ships are sold for the value of the scrap iron.
