HOW MANY HOURS A YEAR-MONTH-DAY DO YOU PUT ON YOUR MOTORS

All right, I'm an engineer and I do love numbers that (might, probably) mean something. So here's a summary of Journey On's trip logs.

I can't explain the loss in fuel economy, but I'm hoping the new ECM might help. Or we left the sailboat days in '08 and just started going faster.

loss in performance may be linked to how much stuff is in the boat. the longer we have the boat the more stuff gets add to it, on , and in it. I blame susan as its mostly her stuff.
 
HUNKYDORY/JAY: Now that is taking advantage of trailerable. Suddenly, I feel normal again. :mrgreen:

StarcraftTom: Careful there hero....Susan may unload that walking/talking extra baggage.... :disgust

Nice chart Boris. Clean, simple... I like that.

This is a fun thread.

One of the things I was attempting to get across to a local man looking to buy a boat for use around here in TN and down south in FL at his condo...was the fact that with an enclosed cabin trailerable boat...you can boat 12 months out of the year....rather than the 4 that he boats now....and, on those wonderful "liquid sunshine" days of rain...well, then that is even better days to go out. The fish are already wet, and the crowds stay home. Great times on the water.

The Tom Cat gets about 150 hours a year, the C Dory 25 got about 125 hours a year and our Century 18/Caracal 18 gets about 80 hours a year. Total about 350 hours a year. Since we sold the West Coast boat, (C Dory 22/25) we will be using the others more, and I suspect that in the next couple of years we will be putting considerably more hours on the boats.
