Quiz Time 193, 56, 2000

Three units are missing at the end of each set of number. Any ideas?
Clue 1 – 2010 sailing season

On Saturday we motored over the Marina Bay in Quincy for Prairie Gold’s winter home. Its been a windy weekend with a surprising number of sailboats out in the harbor. Also the Coastguard were out in force and one had a brief discussion with us. Vice President Joe Biden was coming to town so there was a security zone around the airport. On the way over we were disappointed that we didn’t have sails on the boat. However, when we go to Quincy and watched others trying to take down their sails and fold them, we felt that we had been wise to do this last weekend when there was almost no wind. Clue 2 – One of the units corresponds to distance

Approaching Quincy

When we were in Quincy we finished winterization – oil and filter change, as well as flushing anti-freeze through the raw water cooling system. Now we wait for her to be taken out of the water.

Lots of docklines in these heavy winds. Just heard on the news that there will be sub freezing temperatures tonight. Winterized just in time!

Answer:

2010 Season

193 days on the water

56 legs of trips

2000 nm elapsed
