Too many variables to make a guess at best...

Miles per gallon would depend on the application. However a 30hp will use "about" 3 gallons per hour at wot.
Whether pushing a house boat or a runabout.

Sorry I meant MPH not MPG. Thanks for the correction

We need a lot more information to give you an estimate. Need boat length, weight, type etc. Then we can guess closer.

Try using a handheld gps unit when you're out on the water. It will give you a rough estimate. Be aware though that this info isn't the gospel because handheld units aren't that accurate and you're getting your feedback from something 250+ miles up.:happy:

Totally a guess but probably 25-30 MPH.
