For me, it wont change alot, the only thing might be the "iffy" nights.. those nights when there is a "chance" of T storms , when I normaly would drive down any way... and if it happens, turn around and go home, or those nights when the wind is the "wrong" quardrent or blowing a little stiffer than I want... I may be more inclined to stay home than drive 30 minutes to the boat.... I'll probably watch the fuel consumption a little closer ( I have a GPH gauge on my Garmin GPS)... I used it a little last fall, while running the beach, and found that i could squeeze a few more miles out of a tank by keeping the fuel flow @ 6-8 GPH ( 115 merc on a 18' center console) which, if memmory serves me was about 22knots...other than that... it's "buisness as usual"
