Very cool!!!! Love the boat!!!! What a awesome trip, even with buying the boat I bet overall it was a fairly cheap adventure.

Looks like an awesome trip! Did you guys run on plane at all or did you just idle along the whole way?

It was excellent! And yes, we did a few times, but the large distance between fuel stops kept it to a minimum.

after dropping the boat at the starting point, a friend drove it to our destination in New Orleans and it awaited us there

If you had used this intro at the beginning.. and made the rebuild episode #1.. this whole thing would make a LOT more sense.. some where in episode 1 there is a kamazke run to New Orleans and Back.. unexplained why or even how this is possible

How much fuel would use in an hour cruising at a slower speed?
@SmallCraftCruising6 жыл бұрын
our rpm's were 1600-1800 depending on river speed to keep the 10-12 mph overall. 3.2 gph consumption which translated to around 3.75 mpg including river flow of 2-3 mph.

@@SmallCraftCruising if you dont mind me asking, what would approximate fuel costs be for the trip? I am guessing a couple grand at least?
@SmallCraftCruising5 жыл бұрын
iamnitrox we averaged 3.75 miles per gallon as stated above. It was approx 1200 miles down the river. 1200miles / 3.75mpg = 320gallons used. You can figure fuel cost from there.

What is the cabin size to fit all five of you dang
@SmallCraftCruising5 жыл бұрын
Envy Anthony since the boat interior was not complete, we put 2 in the V-berth, 1 in the dinette and 2 on the floor. Since the trip the interior is now more complete and this setup is no longer possible.
