A guy I met in the Mi.Hot boat assn. has a 32' Skater turbine boat that he bought from Howard Arneson. He told me the boat has logged over 100hrs at over 100 mph and I guess it tops out at close to 150 mph. He said that when he fills her up he has the guy with the tanker truck with home heating oil come by and the fuel is less than 1$ per gal. That probably offsets some of the extreme fuel consumption. I don't think fuel cost is much of an issue to him anyway.
