We had a 28 footer at the water line with twin 3.8 V6 drove it at 22 knots at 3,800 RPM it burnt 1 liter a minute. We kept it in salt water all year. Each year we got it halled, hull cleaned and painted, oil changed in stern drives. In all we spent 2,500 to do all that. We put 100 to 120 hours on it each year for 5 years.
Working on engines was very tight. Boat had a 10.5 foot beam.
