I think fuel prices have slowed me down this year. We stayed local in NJ put a whopping 35 hours on the mains and 5 on the genny. Burned 85gallons. Filled up with off road diesel at $4.55. With over 400gallons aboard we could do it every year for the next 4 and not buy fuel. But, and this is the big one I miss cruising, setting off in the boat for a month maybe going a 1000 miles or so. Currently I see diesel at the gas station for over 2 bucks a gallon more than gas. It makes me sick--It is not the money but the principal how could things go down hill so fast. Anyway Rant over.
