I guess what I'm really looking for is a feel for how far is too far to

isn't frowned on at all, but as it should be is motivated by the expected
enjoyment of the destination and the time available to spend there. Some

you seem happy to travel quite far to reach a favorite destination with 4
hours jumping out as a common high number. And in your case, you make the
point of what your towing and with what plays a role in the work vs fun
calculation.

Actually, we used to have a poster here that bragged about frequently
dragging his highly modified 2452 Bayliner from Derby, Kansas to San
Carlos, Sonora, Mexico.... must be close to 1750 miles... one
way....

for me, 1/2 miles is plenty....

That's a long haul for some recreational boating; must have been something
