Last year we made it back to the St Francis in 16 1/2 hours, with 6-8 hours of pure sailing. We are planning on 6gal, which is extra for just in case. This includes 1/2 gal for motor to RYC if required. We figure our usage at 1/4 gal for every 45 min of motoring.
We plan on sailing whenever the wind permits.
