The general consensus seems to be, 'start out with the factory/published chart and then modify for your boat, noting rpm, speed of boat, wind speed (for or against), current speed (for or against) and wave direction and height (for or against).
You have now created your very own, more accurate graph or chart. Refine as you gather more real world data.
Remember, things do change..... ie, the weight of your boat will change as the fuel and water loading changes
