Does anyone have one of these and know the fuel consumption per hour..?
The Volvo website is not showing any information etc.

Thanks in advance

Depends on how much power you intend to extract from it. This in turn will depend on what sort of boat it is fitted to. For example, cruising or motorsailing in a displacement sailboat will be very different from a planing powerboat.
