Default Help with fuel consumption?

Hi All,

A fishing buddy has a 17.5' Crestliner walk through aluminum boat with a
Volvo 3.0 GS (4 cylinder 120 hp) I/O.

It goes 30 mph @ 4000 rpm and top speed is 39 mph.

What should his fuel consumption be for this boat while cruising @ 30 mph?

He is wondering if his boat is consuming more fuel than it should be.

Thanks for any help.
