You're, we're all correct. Everyone gets a chicken dinner with crab and shrimp appetizers.
I often cruise at below hull speed... but when I feel like getting some place fairly quickly - I hit 17 knots plane!
That said: I do not get Mark's Coot's 4 nmpg. Best our Tolly can do 1s 2.75 to 3 maximum nmpg at same or even lesser approx. speed of 6 knots on one engine of her twins.
Single screw FD hull wins hands down for economy... planing hull wins in other ways!
