Given the clear weather and the (odd) northeasterly wind, I travelled a bit
farther out of the Peconic than I normally would have. Got some shelter
around Southhold bay, about 8 nm from the marina. Total travel time, each
way, about 25 minutes. So, say about an hour of travel time, at about 15
gph. We spent about 6 hours on the water, and several more at the dock.


I forgot to include boaters and their marinas and Coast Guard protection
to my list of "subsidies of recreational activities."

Get a clue, "Skylune," you hypocrite!
