I embarked on a trip to beat Allitnil's trip from Sol to Jaques Station, so i engineered my Anaconda like his (i was about 3 tons heavier and a little less than 1ly in mass jump distance, but than 2.3 dropped and i got to take advantage of the light weight sensors engineer and ended up with a better build)
I left from Sol on April 15th and traveled to Sag A then to Colonia arriving yesterday, June 18th.
This is the build i used: https://eddp.co/u/pgfaBnnY
This is my running log of the journey: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1gdrFiSCYti_Kh9L7pDqYvwg6_k7FtS0yiZIYB1k-d2Q/edit#gid=0
Some fellow CMDR's from CoR suggested i post this on the forums, they feel this achievement should be made known to the rest of the Elite: Dangerous community.
It was a long journey, and doing everything i could to reduce my consumption probably made it longer...but well worth it. Throughout the trip i had personal friends and members of Children of Raxxla and Deep Recon X tracking my progress, along with a friend cgally stopping by to take a photo and an interview from Geech MD from Exo. I did the entire journey without support for refuel or repairs, and flying that long on economical jumps is a very grueling, tedious task.
The end results were 20,398 jumps made, covered over 48,000 ly's, and had an estimated 57 tons of fuel left when docking with Jaques station.
Allitnil's record inspired me to make this journey and set a new record...and with keeping a log i now know flying from Sol to Colonia and back CAN BE DONE, but a trip from Sol to Sag A and back is very well possible too. I encourage anyone interested in a fuel scoopless journey to challenge this new record and see how far they can push their ships
