I agree w/ Capt. Vinny, you don't state where this 700 mile trip takes place from where to where?? meaning are you offshore, ICW, a combination of both?? an example of the variables you might encounter offshore trip south to north you could take advantage of the gulf stream and pick up 2/3 knot boost., going the opposite way prevaling winds are starting to switch out out of the SE or SW could be on you nose?? ICW you have tidal currents that will affect you and knock your speed up or down depending on how you catch the current. and as Vinny said take plenty of extra fuel filters for the primary as well as the engine filter. aand if you don't have a Racor primary filter on the boat I would sure put one on before I made the trip. On my delivery from Ft. Lauderdale to (planned New Bern, NC) 2nd day out about 60 miles off the coast of SC an un-forecasted Northeaster blew up (25 to 30 knot's and 12'+ seas for 16 hours) end result was running out of fuel 120 miles offshore of Wrightsville Beach NC (40 gal tank plus 4/ 5gal gerry jugs) and had to get towed in to Wrightsville Beach, NC no problem there, but it added an extra day to our trip as we continued the balance of the trip motoring up the ICW, and trust me it's no fun changing fuel filters in 12'+ seas.
The point being, just be prepared for the worst case scenario, because "if it's going to happen, its going to happen out there!"
