Great MakoMike - I'd love to tag around a real pro like yourself.
If anyone here's of any SBFT hanging around, let's PM one another and get a trip scheduled.

Zach,
I cruise at around 25-27 knots depending on sea conditions. Range is about 150 miles each way. Range also depends on how fast we get there and back, at trolling speeds I could probably triple my range. but I would have to take a month off from work.  |

umm...no way I can run 300 miles at 25 kts.
I guess I will have to tag along with someone else some day.

Zacs I think MM is in the minority of the folks on this thread. I cruise at about 24 knots (seas permitting), get just over 2 miles per gallon, and have a 100 gal tank. I can carry an extra 20 to 40 gallons if need be but I typically do not like to do this and will only do it if I'm planning to troll once I get out there. Using the 1/3rd out, 1/3rd in, 1/3rd reserve rule, I will only go out about 60 miles max and only on the very best days.
