Yes I'm slow but what does that make you?

I could do that on less than 300 beans, but I'll only do like 50 there and back. Is that rockaway east or the next inlet? Paddy's and back usually is like a 50-65 gal day for me. Shocking how good this boat is on fuel. That's why I just can't move up! Too much fun for the money!

About your gps , take my palm with the gps in it and see what the speed says. I didn't buy the marine charts screen is a bit small, but speed will work fine. Is that the only issue?

It's the first inlet past Paddy's. We usually cruise close to 60 mph but I can take it down a notch so I don't burn as much fuel. 3K rpms is about 48 mph.

Not sure how much fuel it will take... I guess I'll have to do it to find out!

I think the GPS is working but everyone else's is broken!

It may be enough for gas. But not the food and bar tab.

Well, I go my boat ride today! Took the ferry from Manhattan and met Mike in Highlands. Took a "quick" ride down the river and then Windandsea for dinner! It was like glass out there.

Glad to see you guys got out yesterday, unlike Lift Queen.

Food/Bar Tab, that's a separate budget!

I hear super is $4.20 gallon up in Long Island... Better yet, the guys on the Mohegan run had to pay $4.60 gallon out on Block Island!
