For the hell of it I looked at the temps (see attached)
Ocean temp just offshore is 37 deg. If you make the run to hydro it is 42 degrees. BUT....if you have the range and can run another 120 miles beyond hydro  it is 72 degrees! Nice break too.
Looking forward to July.

with the cost of diesel rising you might not make the mudhole and back.
might be an interesting season if it keeps going up in price.......

knocked 2 knots off my cruise last year to gain mileage, might have to knock a few more knots off this year.
Went from 1.0 mpg to 1.2 mpg

Hook up a flowscan and find the sweet spot on fuel burn for the long runs. Your probably pretty close as it is. But it adds up for those that use their boat.
I keep vasolating on getting a bigger but the cost of running it over what I have is hard to swallow. One week I am full steam ahead and the next I plan to keep what I have. Getting old sucks, I can't make up my mind.
