Silver Voyager has returned home after her trip to Florida.
Ginnie had some issues with her knee replacement, so she and their dog drove home, while Al hung out in Vero Beach and a friend joined him to return the
boat to
North Carolina.
The trip was 1500 miles round trip, and her average speed was 10.5 knots for a total
fuel burn of 636 gals or 2.4 miles per gal.
Not to bad for her first time out.
The trip down was all in the
ICW due to Ginnie's knee, and the trip home was as well due to the nasty
weather the last couple of weeks.
I can't wait to see her fuel burn and spped in open ocean vs the shallow
depth of the
ICW on an extended
passage.
We must have the Flow Scans dialed in well, as what they said she burned is what it took to the gallon to fill her up.
Her first extended trip and I am happy to report I have no punchlist to attend to.
