Underway for a 50–mile leg, Fire Island Inlet to Shinecock Inlet…

/ shellerina

We cruise between 1800 and 1900 RPM, which is about 10 mph. Slower than many boats; but ours is a very fuel efficient craft. After 9 hours underway, our fuel gauge still shows FULL!

On long legs like this one, the new Auto Pilot really becomes an appreciated member of the crew!

AIS (Automatic Identification System for boats) information about other boats appears on our chart plotter now!
