Would someone please give me an idea of the cost to boatees of diesel
fuel in either US gallons or litres?

It would be great if someone could also give me an idea of the same in
the Caribbean - I realise that it must vary from place to place.

Also, what is the current cost of petrol for cars. When I was there
last, about 8 years ago, it seemed incredibly cheap.


About 40%-50% of prices in Europe.

Presently, prices are very high by US standards, about $2.30/US gallon
here in Southern California for land based purchases of either this week.
Last week it was $2.40. Add 15%-30% for marina pricing.

You should have added, California prices are at least $.30 more than the
rest of the country.


Not New York. Diesel at the marina dock is $2.75. At a land based filling
station, $2.55 (our car is a diesel). Cheapest diesel we have seen was $2.10
on the New Jersey Turnpike.
