About this calculation

Runtime = usable fuel ÷ fuel burn rate.

How to use this calculator

What to enter

Enter or select the following as requested: Usable fuel; Fuel unit; Fuel burn rate (L/hour). Follow the units, valid ranges, examples, and options displayed beside each field.

What the result means

The marine result estimates a heading, distance, displacement, fuel range, runtime, or wind category from the vessel and navigation values entered. Check true versus magnetic bearings, chart datum, units, vessel loading, current, wind, and reserve assumptions.

When to use it

Use this for learning or preliminary marine planning. Verify navigation and safety-critical values against current charts, official forecasts, vessel documentation, and qualified operational procedures.
