[C320-list] Diesel price survey

[BAdams3491 at aol.com]

I buy all my fuel (in a five gallon container) at a truck stop on the  
interstate.  It's much cheaper, and, even more important, it's much  fresher.

We were  out for two weeks in May and paid $5.22/gal for diesel at Haven 
Harbor  Marina on Swan Cr. behind Rock Hall.  I was shocked at that.  I  
noticed that they have a sliding price based on volume.  I forget  what were 
the break points; but, is was way more than I would ever buy  even if I 
pumped the aft cabin full of diesel.  Add that to the  $3/foot marina with a 
$75 minimum and you can see why there are many fewer  power boats on the 
Chesapeake these days.

I recently filled up  at the marina and was just curious what other areas are 
paying for diesel  these days.
Please list your area and price when responding.

Marina  Del Rey, Ca    $4.96 per gallon
(on April 24th)

Kind of  makes you glad you bought a sailboat.  :)
