Thanks jleonard. The author of that article with the MS390 fuel-burn testiing is Capt. Bill Pike of Power&Motoryacht magazine. He has a stellar reputation and I'm guessing he has as much experience as most of us here combined.
Here's his website:
EASY DOES IT
Hard to believe he just fabricated a bunch of phony test data.
Nonetheless, 10.6 nmpg at 8.5kts is hard to believe.
Just curious, how do most folks here determine fuel burn? Floscan?
