We left the lift behind my house at about 10:35 and returned about 3:00. Down Charlotte Harbor, west through Boca Grande pass, out to the Gulf, north to the northern tip of Boca Grande (Gasparilla Island) to Gasparilla Pass. We anchored a few feet off the beach.

The Harbor was rocking and rolling right inside of Boca Grande pass, this is pretty normal during tide changes, the Gulf was flat.

For us it was a 65.1 mile round trip, I burned 27.8gal of 93 octane, so that’s 2.34mpg.

how much oil do you burn with that amount of fuel ?

thank's
mike

sounds good frank will see you in two weeks

I took the total amount of gas I put in in the last 27 months, and divided that by the total amount of oil I put in.

I average right at 50 gallons of gas burn, per gallon of oil burn.

Jim,

Mark & Darcy are due right about then, it will be our first grandchild. See you then, remember Oct 10 is the FMO season opener to Naples, 175 mile round trip by boat, from here.
