Anyone out there with a 56 Hp Yanmar and/or a Panda 8Kw gen set have a feel for how much fuel either uses in Gallons per hour?

fuel usage

Ed, My Panda mini 8 uses .19 gallons per hour and my Yanmar 50 HP uses 1.45 gallons per hour at 2800-2900 rpm. I have an autoprop on my 410 so the usage may be different with a different prop. I use an Excel spreadsheet I've put together that estimates the usage over the four seasons I've had the boat, so its pretty accurate for average usage. I'm in the owners directory if you or anyone else wants a copy. I'd be happy to e-mail it. Bryce S/V Spellbinder H 410
