I have a single 454 and average about 50-100 a trip depending on how hard I go. I usually shoot from Selfridge to Gull and back. I do some nice long trips too yesterday I did Selfridge to Gull, up the middle channel, down the North Channel, over to smoke on the water, then bayside and tryst and finally back to Selfridge. Grand total was $120 or so in fuel, I was cruising most of the time, and wasnt wide open too much. Throw in food and drinks and easily was a $250 dollar day after 11 hours.
Update- So far this season Ive been out since late March. My fuel total is just shy of $500, Ive burnt about 125 gallons of fuel, in approx 15 hours of run time. Its been a blast but this new boat is so much more expensive than the last
Did I mention is som much more....LOUD!!! Too lol

You might be suprised. If you continue to do what you did the cost increase is not that big. But with a bigger boat and twins most of us go farther for longer and can really start cranking the bucks out for gas. Haha.
