$3.89/gallon at our marina (Vermilion, OH). It has been that price
since May 9th.
I do not know what diesel or high octane is going for.

They only sell one grade so I don't know. Still a helluva price for a
marina.
Topped off the tank (19 gallons) after a bit of Vermilion River
cruising with my wife (Lake was still too rough).
Lake Erie was too rough? Were you in a canoe?


Nope....a 20 foot boat. We do not like to cruise the Lake in the
boat while getting knocked around so we cruised the river.


Where is it that you boat that you know the conditions on the Lake off
the Vermilion River?


That was years ago. If you read my post "over there" closely you would
already know that.

I've been on Lake Erie maybe 20 times in boats ranging from 18' to 25'.
Most were out of Port Clinton.

I guess your idea of "knocked around" is different than mine. I've been
in 2-4's with my 19.6' (with no low transom to constrain me) well over
10 miles offshore in the Atlantic Ocean. It's not comfortable but it's
also not scary. 4-6'er are enough to call it a day.

Carry on.


So you live in Florida and boated on Lake Erie in the past. Were on
the Lake today at around noon at the mouth of Lake Erie at the
Vermilion River breakwall or are you just trying to stir the pot hare
as you normally do?

Me thinks so. ;-)

No wonder why folks continue to leave this place.
