I used to run those Mercruiser 260's in several different boats. Rock-solid performance combo. But, unless there's been significant improvements, I'd expect closer to 20-22 gph at cruise from twins.
Take a look here:
MerCruiser 5.7 Fuel Consumption 250/260 HP | MPG GPH Test & Specs US Gallons per Hour | MerCruiser 260 engine
BTW, I spent the last few days in Marathon, FL fishing on a 22 Robalo center console. Buddy just bought the boat -- it's niiiice.
