Depends how soon we want to get someplace. 10 Kn is comfortable, 15 kn accomplishes the job that much sooner. The advertised top speed of our boat is 18 kn. Have not pushed the throttle levers all the way forward...
I really don't care about fuel consumption, you might burn more fuel going faster, but you will also get there sooner. Depends what your time is worth.
