Just an FYI: If you need to fill up in the Victoria area, by far the best
deal is at Jones Marine Services in Chemainus, BC. Phone is 604-669-3900.
When I filled my tanks last fall (roughly 5000 litres) they were 15% less
expensive than the closest competitor. It's where most of the tugs and
commercial vessels fill up. In fact, I only discovered this place from a
friend who is a commercial captain, it's tucked away where you would never
find it. By the way, they also sell bulk Rotella straight 40 weight lube oil,
useful if you have an old Detroit Diesel like my 6-110.

No connection, etc.

In Europe and Canada the other half of the cost of fuel goes towards medical
services, not a fair comparison.
