    I have a 1978 Puget Trawler 37 (Taiwan built) with a single Ford Lehman 120
    hp.

    On last summer's trip from Seattle to SE Alaska I ran at 1600 rpm achieving
    7 knots and burned 2.0 gallons per hour for a mpg of 3.5 Nautical MPG(US
    gallons).

    The Lehman is an older design, all mechanically injected engine. Are there
    any newer engines that can achieve the same economy?
