harold Posted September 14, 2006 Share Posted September 14, 2006 Filled up today at Akuna Bay and Premium was 1.67 a litre (less 5% discount for the marina customers). Last time i filled up was about 5 weeks ago and it was $1.99, it is going the right way. Any one else filled up on the water lately? If so how much did you pay and where?

domza Posted September 14, 2006 Share Posted September 14, 2006 sorry can't answer your question, but im curious, do they offer premixed fuel with oil in it? if they do can u trust what they put in the fuel? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sammy0884 Posted September 14, 2006 Share Posted September 14, 2006 domza, i would be very very cautious about buying premix from a marina..... much safer and cheaper to just mix your own. the marina would move very little premix and it would be stale as old bread!

Bashir Posted September 14, 2006 Share Posted September 14, 2006 hawkesbury river marina sells it, but I never touched it when our boat was moored for the reasons sammy mentioned. But the real reason was because I have oil injection Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flightmanager Posted September 14, 2006 Share Posted September 14, 2006 How is it that the Marinas can get away with charging outrageous prices for their fuel? It wouldnt cost that much for transport etc. I only ever got caught short once , and had to get a top up at a marina , nearly died when I found out what they wanted !!

harold Posted September 15, 2006 Author Share Posted September 15, 2006 Ross, they have you by the bizzos, what is your choice if you have a non trailerable boat? Cart Jerry cans down to the boat? Thats a lot of Jerry cans. They know they have you and they simply exploit you to the limit of their conceptual capacity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
