First Long Cruise

Return to Discussions

Two Saturdays ago, I made my first long cruise in my new boat. I took it to the local river for the first time and traveled about 45 miles downstream before turning around to head back. So about 90 miles round trip. I was nekkid for the whole trip except for a short time to go through a lock twice. I now have a better idea of how far a tank of gas will take me before needing to refuel. I did have additional gas cans along just in case it was needed. I Have made longer trips on previous boats on another river years ago. Some of those were 130+ miles. I can now start to plan for longer trips on this boat in the future with additional fuel storage on board.

Sounds like fun. Did you get to ski?

Not being the only one aboard, no.
