Is it true that a Martian year lasts about 687 Earth days?
Yes. Two independent reference sources state that a Martian year lasts about 687 Earth days: a Wikipedia article on timekeeping on Mars gives a sidereal year of about 686.98 Earth days, and a Caltech report on the Mars Observer mission equates one Martian year with 687 Earth days.
