KAD 32 fuel consumption

[Frontier]

Anyone know how much fuel a 31ft cruiser with with twin KAD32's would use, Its a Sealine, but I guess most boats of a similar size with the same engines would have similar consumption?

I get roughly 1 mile from 1.5 litres burned. I.E Earlier this year - full tanks, travel 57 miles, top up again £37.00 at 40 plus pence a litre. Thats in f33 /twin 32/s with davits, o/b, big zodiac and loads of gear on board with two adults, doing around 21knts.

I get on mile for each 2 litres on my Princess 286 or approx 2.5 mpg. Cruising speed 20-24 knots. I reckon thats about 8 gallons/hour

other useless info - 20 knots at 2,500 rpm, 24 knots at 3,000 rpm

Filled up on Sunday - fuel at the barge in Poole Harbour 53p/litre!!!!!!
