Thank you for that lesson. I fully followed your explanation. I probably use a little more when fishing because moving around, etc. When I bought boat down I kept tanks full and ran continuous for about 12 hours a day offshore then in to a marina. I fueled up nightly and I used about 50 gallons daily. Sometimes a little more. Interesting that when I run in water less than 10 feet my speed is exactly the same as the depth. For example if I am in 7' I go 7 knots and when the water increases to 10 again my speed increases back to 10. I feel the boat rise and then settle back to normal angle. I know it is the pressure back push off the bottom from the hull. Anyway just a thanks again.
