do you average yearly (or season) on your engines?

I run in my 6 month season about 60 hours each engine. Mostly cruise locally to my harbor and a couple trips around 90 miles a year up and down lake Michigan's eastern shore.

I don't log the engine hours any more but log the trip distances... 641 Nm this last season 6 May till 20 Sept, stopped a little earlier than normal.
2007 was 82 hrs
2008 was 67.6hrs
2009 est: 70hrs

I also average around 100 hours or so a year. This past year I logged just over 900 miles of boating bliss! About 750 of that was on my Trojan and the rest was on my fishing boat.

I can walk down the dock and most boats I see won't even have 5 hours put on them . I will guarantee I am in the top 5 of power boats being used ay my marina . and in the top 5 of all the boats if you do not count all the sail boats that head south every year. used to be the average boater put 100 a year on . bet its a lot less now . bet its closer to 25. Dock queens bring the numbers way down.

Paul, I bet you're right. A majority of the boats on our dock only run far enought to pump out.
