Size has little to do with it, and How often do you go anywhere that

Moored or anchored? Sometimes for more than a month. We are totally
independant of marinas except for fuel and water and the boat has lots
of that, far more than most sail boats.

You likely use more fuel in a hour than I use in a season. And your
fuel is that smelly, more expensive stuff. I'll bet that despite your
vast tankage, you visit fuel docks far more often than I do.
