I've no real idea about distance but it's half an hour by car. My classification is based on function rather than distance.
A. Bottom of the garden, or pop on and off as you wish.
B. Screwdriver distance. Close enough to go home for a screwdriver rather than buy a replacement at the chandlers'.
C. Day sail distance. Close enough to be worth going in the morning and come back later after a sail.
D. Overnight distance. Too far for a day trip and back.
E. Pack for a week.
I am currently C but have been D in the past.
I like these real world criteria! We are also in category C, which generally works well. Might regret not being A / B this year.
