Alaska
« on: June 04, 2023, 05:23:36 PM »
Almost back in Washington state.  Going to end up being a 2200 mile trip. 30 days on the water.  Some big water in Alaska. Boat performed flawlessly, averaged 3- 3.75 miles per gallon depending on currents. Met up with Lindy and ms. Jones, absolutely fantastic, generous people. Enjoyed a home cooked salmon dinner and a cocktail on there deck. Ran into them again in Petersburg and got some pics of the boats together. Cannot believe how much bigger his boat is then mine. His pictures do not do their boat justice, it is very well done.

Wow, that mileage is spectacular! I'm realizing that my choice of a V6 250 vs an I4 200 is likely the reason I cannot achieve 3nmpg in real world use. Awesome trip!
