Kenosha to Hammond, IN
September 29, 2023

How did my plans match up with what really happened??

Plan Comparison
Date: September 29, 2023
Start at: 6:30 am Actually left at 6:40 am
End at: 2:15 pm Arrived at fuel dock at 1:33 pm, at our slip and set up at 2:15 pm
Total Time: 6:36 Total time was actually 7:35 (includes start up, fueling, & docking)
Distance: 66.2 Total distance was 66.9 miles
Fuel Plan: 60 gallons We put in 48.832 gallons

I pretty much ran the engines at 1700 RPM all day. It didn’t make much of a difference in speed but the MPG went from 2.1 to 1.3 and GPH went from 2.0 to 3.2. The extra speed isn’t worth the cost. Good to know!!

Rita will post photos later, I just wanted to share a couple I took to have photos attached with this post.
