How can you even pretend to comprehend how many hours were spent charging on
the hook???

The same way you pretend to know how many hours I motor. When we went to
Northport we motored about 3 hours of it. And coming back we motored when we
entered Port Washington.
Those were to longest sustained motoring we did along with the East River runs.
The question really is: Am I running my engine enough to keep it healthy?
