Your friend burned that much fuel because he cruised at a speed way higher than his optimal fuel efficient speed. His is about 21 knots and 3300 RPM. That will get him about 0.7 MPG. No way gas burns twice your diesel.
You are completely wrong. His boat will go more than 40 kits at WOT. We've made this same trip for three years. Some times he's gone alone and he has never used less than 320 gal round trip which is 1.6 NMPG
