Most use 9-10 knts. That is your best speed for fuel. Fuel used correctly will give you plenty time on patrol, but your not going to cruise all the pacific. You should be able to get to you patrol zone from Midway and have 3/4 of a tank left. You basically have a little less than a half a tank to patrol on.
