Gas Prices

$2.89 for unleaded in the Tropical Tip (on land and water). $3.54 for diesel locally, but saw for $3.25 at Sam's Club in Harlingen, TX this week.

Get out there and play with the toys before the price goes back up! 8)

Free smartphone apps that can save you a bundle:
gasbuddy.com
for nearest gas of all grades including diesel...amazing how a gas station 3 miles away can save you 30 cents a gallon, and how many people don't care.

puregas.com
for nearest ethanol-free gas for the boat (usually prices are not included due to so much less use, but you can call the included phone # for current price).

Been using both for years, no regrets, great reviews, TRY IT, YOU'LL LIKE IT!

Cheers!

Regular at a gas station here in the Victoria BC area has been steady at 1.159/ l . That translates into 3.89 USD/ gal, most of it tax. Of course for those of us who keep the boat in the water and don't have a trailer this isn't available. Still at 1.3/l at the marina but no ethanol. It's still the cheapest part of boating and I love the flexibility. Beautiful day today so did a 40km (25 mile) bike ride, took a shower and then jumped in the boat. Cruised over to Mill Bay marina in Saanich Inlet for lunch. It's not yet 2:30 and the sun is shining with temperature by the water of 57F. . Should be a great ride home to Sidney. What a wonderful place to be retired!

That was easy! :wink

PS: England was metric when I left in 1975 but you can still buy beer in pints today and the speed limits are still in miles. Simply practical. Now, how many 3/8 bolts are there on a Yamaha outboard?
