I know, well... nothing about boats. I've always been curious to know the fuel economy of these big dual outboard motor installations. Would it be considered rude to ask what common fuel consumption numbers would be (GPH, MPG?) for typical running conditions?

(I am always trying to tell myself that my airplanes are fairly economical to operate. Yeah, I know... :scratch: LoL )

Generally 1-4mpg
Fuel burn is similar to (but lower than) a twin with 600hp, but the cruise speed is a bit slower :D

I had a Sea Hunt 30' with twin 350's, I averaged about 1.8mpg while I babied it and could drop it to less than 1.2mpg while trying to get somewhere faster. It had a 230 gallon gas tank and a 19 gallon fresh water tank, pretty much every time we went out required minimum $1,000, every time.

But the beauty of being 80 miles out in deep Tuna waters is priceless, especially that far out with twin engine redundancy, FUN FUN FUN that regardless of the amount of fuel you are burning, the fun just can't be replaced for the trips we made. In a boat like the OP is selling here you don't really think to much about the cost, you think more about the Joy it brings to everyone on board and the safe security of two engines.

Thank you, Justin and Todd, for your patience in educating me.

Now I really CAN say my airplanes are pretty efficient! :D
