30 GPH! That is really thirsty. I'd be looking at something with sails after that trip to the gas station. My 24 Grady White with twins burned 17 gph at 4000 rpm cruise @ about 28 mph and I thought that was bad. One of my buddies considered my Grady White but settled on a 23 Gulfstream that looked showroom, he's got twin 200's that use A LOT OF GAS at cruise. He got rid of a V20 with twin 85 Yamaha's so he's probably getting a real shock at the fuel dock.
