Regards....

We re-fueled, bought two gallons of oil, and topped off our water yesterday at Sealine Marina. The fuel was $2.19 plus tax less a 5% Boat US discount. They charged us $5 to top off our water and they charged us $37 for two gallons of Rotella 30 wt. When I got back to the anchorage and looked closely at the charge slip, I called them and told them there must have been some mistake on the oil, then said no, it was $18.50 per gallon. I would be hard pressed to call this marina a "cruiser friendly marina". It will be a pleasure to get back to the Bahamas where oil is "cheap". We're hauling anchor as I send this. Regards....

i refuled there jsut once, couple of years ago. i usually refuel right next to dinner key marina in the grove (north of the docks)... paid 1.90 a couple of weeks ago incl tax. there is a new marina next to it, which you see first coming in, they're usually more expensive and the fuel guys unfriendly. at least the one time I tried it. pascal miami, fl 70 hatteras 53my ----- Original Message ----- From: "Philip J.
