Back from the first 10-day leg of our extended summer cruise, (boat is
in Comox, BC and we're going back up in about 3 weeks).

What type of boat, what size, what engine, and what size?

I had four gallons of oil and one oil filter in my spares inventory.

On the boat, or at home etc ? And why so much oil on hand ?


(It would also make sense to simply carry 8 gallons of fresh
oil......) I won't leave the dock again without *two* spare oil
filters, either.

You must have some very unique situation,
because most boaters I know don't carry
enough oil, and oil filters to change their oil
on their boats. This must be a really big boat ?
