I get 2-2.5mpg at 38mph depending on the load and conditions, if you get more than 1 mpg you can quote it that way if its less than you usually say GPH at xx MPH or knots

If your boat can be assessed in MPG, you are on the wrong site. We're focused on killing the environment using 16 cylinders at a time.

What's cruising? That sounds like something my Grandpa would do. My throttle has two positions, up and down. My engine builder told he was going to remove my throttle and replace it with a switch. I told him no, I wouldn't have anything to hang my hat on.
