No, litres is good - I'm a nice metric Canadian, only mentioned gals
so those Americans would understand...

Looking at a 50 l tank, so at 5 knots with a couple litres to spare,
range would be about 150 miles. (if its not "quiet", there's wind and
I can sail!)

Thanks

This summer, I visited family on Vancouver Island, and enjoyed sailing
in the beautiful waters in and around Georgia Strait. Where I come from,
the current is generally not that much of a problem, but I learned, that
the tide in some of your waters can give some very different conditions
and boat speeds. I.e.: 50 liters of diesel may not always give you 150
NM ... ;0) ... But you can count on your engine will run for a little
more than 30 hours ... ;0) ...
