Fuel burn rate

Looking for ideas as to why my engine monitoring system is telling me that my port engine is burning more fuel than my starboard engine.  Both engines are running at the same RPM, trim tabs are in the same position on both sides.  The difference is not minimal...I'd say that if my starboard is burning 13.5 gph, the computer is telling me the port is burning somewhere close to 14.7 gph.  My drives are fixed and do not trim,  and as far as I know they are aligned properly.

Other than what the computer is telling me, the boat and engines are running fine with no issues.
