At 5 knots, that should give him a range of 175 miles.

I must have been wrong when I thought that you were disagreeing with me.
My only other contribution to this thread was pointing out that you had flawed
conversion for Imperial to US gallons, ironically while you were accusing Scotty
of being "mathematically challenged."
I think everyone is in agreement that 12 gallons, US or Donal sized, should be
enough for a 100 mile trip, but Scotty should still be cautious, since he has
not verified the fuel usage of his boat, or the true size of the tank.
