Whhat gas going for on the water throughout the US. $3.98 for premium,
downstate NY. No regular available at my marina


I paid 2.99 a gallon on Saturday in Montauk Harbor for a top-off on my
pwc (on the way back from the far side of Block Island, where two
buddies and I had ridden on the ocean from Flanders Bay, then made our
way back along the Peconic) - actually I'm not sure now what octane it
was. Technically you're not supposed to have a pwc inside that harbor
but happily noone hassled me or anything (at that point I was riding
alone, having parted ways with my two friends - if we'd all three gone
in as a "pack," we probably would have been stopped), and the guy at
the fuel dock was nice enough to assist me quickly, instead of ignoring
me or making me sit there forever as sometimes happens. 145 miles
riding that day, with just one top-off; thank goodness for my 4-stroke.
