Nice to see it trending down right as I plan to trend my usage up!

I'll be checking out the pumps in Norwalk CT over the weekend.

I would love to give you a price update at our marina....but we still can't get to it! The river and locks are closed. Looking like Memorial Day weekend at the earliest :(
It's all about relaxation :)

We're planning a cruise to Tolchester today. I'll probably fill up there. I'll post pricing.

Update to my previous post.
The forcast was sunny, 81, winds 5-10, 1 ft. chop. The actual was cloudy, 70, 10-15, 2-3 ft. chop. Not a terrible day but the admiral was not up for the ride across the bay. So we stayed inside to Middle River. Stopped at Carsons's Creek Side for lunch. First time there. Plenty of docking at new piers, good service, good food. Dark Head Creek at the top of Middle River. Recommend it! Since the run was short, no reason to stop for fuel. I'll check pricing at Baltimore Yacht Club this week and post.

I hope all had a good weekend.

Norwalk Cove Marina, last Tuesday (5/31), $4.29/gallon, bit less than 1/2 tank - 160+ gallons!! The .10 discount starts to mean something!

I believe gasoline was $4.59 and I'm VERY happy we're finally back to diesel being cheaper!

$6.37 an imperial gallon at Echo Bay in the Broughton of B. C. Hope Port Hardy is cheaper. Nanaimo was about $5.00 a gallon. Not cheap up here. OUCH.

My new record...279 gallons at 3.89. Broke into new territory at $1,088.41!!

But the 3.89 price at White's Marina north of Beacon NY on the Hudson saved me at least $0.50/gal compared to the Newburgh YC fuel dock!

I wouldn't normally take on so much but the price made me "stock up".

So this time BOAT stands for Burn Off Another Thousand

Doug, love your enthusiasm and excitement of your new found expenditure. Reminds me of when my tranny blew and I was so excited to get to pull my engine out

Well up here on the North Shore of L Erie fuel is 4.94 Cdn a US gallon at the Marina . But got lucky yesterday . The big fellows at the local yacht club ordered a truck in and I got in line and filled up for 4.35 a US gallon , It was cash only
Hope you all in the New York & New Jersey area are injoying all the good Cdn diesel . Myself and fellow pilots have put over 20 foreign tankers dwn through the Welland Canal loaded with low sulphur diesel from the Imperial oil refineries in Ontario.
They have been coming from Europe loaded with all kinds of oil and chemical products and back hauling diesel back for you all in that area . but the kicker is , that you pay less than we do . Gotta love living in the True North Strong and Free and TAXED to death !!!!!!!!!
