    I have thought about it and will pay the extra on the water for ethanol free.Which I guess will be around $5-5.25. I hope That and the river don't rise but there's alot of that going around here lately!

    Gas

    Hah, my C22 rarely gets up on a trailer, so I will be filling up this week at the one remaining marina on the lake...should be interesting...I suspect the normal $1 upcharge over market, so that puts in in the $4.50 + range. Hmmm, let's see, 50 gallons x $4.50 = $225, but a lot of Smiles per Gallon!

    I good friend of mine told me " buy gas today... Because it will cost more tomorrow!
    Im getting used to not having the Sundancer...$500 for a weekend of fuel stings...
    The sting of poor quailty far outlasts the Joy of a cheap price...

    This summer is going to suck. Will have all 3 boats ready to go by June and will not be able to put gas in them. This sucks!
