Should you meet FAR 61.55 and if applicable 91.533 you are set to go and log all the time you want...Provided that the SP conditions are not met.
Presume that the storage space is full, headset mic is US or Autopilot is inoperable then SIC would be required. Still these are not MEL items that would ground the aircraft should there be a SIC available.
FAR's
