Default Good news for boaters? Oil prices headed down?

Have you ever figured out your miles per gallon?

The engine on our "new to us" 27 footer is relatively hi tech with
electronic multiport fuel injection, etc. We seem to be averaging
somewhere around 2.2 to 2.3 NMPG which seems decent enough to me for a
6,000 lb boat cruising at 26 to 27 kts.
