fuel consumption

Some of the boats I have been looking at have the 30 hp atomic 4 engine. So at 5 kts an hour what am I looking at fuel consumption per hour.

I used to sail on a boat with an Atomic 4. 30'' fin keel. if memory serves we burned between .75 and 1.5 gals/hr depending on speed, waves, wind, etc.
