Why does it seem to be from pre-production units?

Matt,

Very little fuel use data for E-TECs? Take a look at e-tecinfonet.org
for
some performance vs consumption numbers on several different boat/motor
combinations.

Yep, I checked that out

Some of it seems to be from preproduction units ... Thus data should be
seen with caution... I wouldnt wtite the motors off because of that.

Compared to Yamaha its little data but probably more than what there is
for Merc

Agree that owner data can be inaccurate unless a fuel flow meter and GPS
is
used.

Yes totally .. if one measured with a normal boat speed sensor and
mechanical flowmeter the results can easily out 10-30%
