Need more info Kierren. I know all too well trying to work fuel into a shoestring research budget! get some details and then I'm sure you'll get some specifics.

Think about what you'll be doing as well where, what and how often. We burn a lot more doing a survey an hour cruise from the dock than we do if we are leaving the dock at 3.5kts and staying at that speed all day!

Factor in oil, filters, general supplies and of course maintenance.

good luck
