It means you push the fun handle forward until it’s touching fiberglass, regardless of sea conditions.

I consider “let it eat” to be the point of speed in a boat where I’m thrilled and the women on board are screaming for me to slow down
Then I hit another boats wake to piss them off more

Just boating (or any thing involving speed) "let it eat" is oft times used to suggest going from nearly no speed to as much speed as the thing will go as quickly as possible. It comes from the Latin "perussi opibus", loosely "eating resources" because "letting it eat" will not only eat up miles it will also eat up your wallet....
Now, if you have a big old gal on the boat and someone says "let it eat", well, the possibilities are endless...
love it!

It’s not so much about how fast one is going but more about a disregard for the out come of the attempt to just keep going.
Ol boy nailed it. When running mud you gotta let that outboard eat.
