Engines on sailboats, When? When Not?

Doug,

I was thinking the same about Joe's fuel load. I get 1200 miles on my
twenty gallon tank. Then I got to thinking about his Motor Sailor. He
can probably motor faster than both of us when he wants, I'm just
turning a 18 HP diesel.

Another reason for running my engine is when I'm using the Micro wave
Oven off the inverter. I need the fifty amp charging.

Ole Thom
