next time you come up, check on the maritine center, its cheap, and right near the aquarium. I'd call first to make sure there is a slip. the only thing you have to watch is if the wind is coming out of the east, it can make it a little bumpy there

Wow!!...whadda trip!!...glad to see someone else willing to take a foul weather trip...I like to be in the V w/the top up and rainy day...I'd love to make that trip...thanks for sharing a great trip w/us!!...
 My lil wifey and I celebrated our 22nd wedding anniversary this weekend as well... That 3.4 MPG is a good example of a large motor not havin' to work hard to get the job done...that 200 is a perfect balance of power-to-weight on the V...NICE!!...

Very nice Pipe, I am jealous.
Which Yammie 200 is that, HPDI? And Oz, congrats, any woman that would put up with you for 22 years, well lets just say sainthood may be in the future for her. LOL

Reel, it was a lot of fun. I look forward to doing it under better conditions, though! We really thought, after checking out several radar sources, that it was going to quit raining soon after our departure, and that the trip would be made under cloudy but dry conditions. We were SO wrong!
Yes, Willy, it's an HPDI. I had been looking forward to making a trip like this in order to find out what it would really burn, and I'm really pleased with the results. 5.5 gph is the BEST that my old 155 ever did -- typically it burned more like 7 gph. I'm going to fuel up this weekend and see how we did on the return trip.
