I assume that is per engine???

I think it proves over 1/2 or 3/4 throttle a 2 stroke or a 4 stroke will use roughly the same amount of fuel.

How fast are you going at 4,000 rpm? Thats pretty good crusing consumption.

Yes per engine, boat is doing just over 40 knots in 4000 revs so the cruising consumption is great.
Yes about the consumption of 2-strokes but dont forget the oil and noice
