I found that my 496HO in my last boat averaged around 12 GPH. That was an average of idle, cruise, fast, and some WOT. This was a pretty consistent number over many tanks of gas. I had a 60 gallon tank and I knew I could typically run 4-5 hours on a tank. I never really equated this to the range, just GPH.

On the way to my destination I think I was running 4000+ rpms. On the way back I noticed the gauge was getting low so I backed off a bit.
