Default Fuel polishing

My neighbor, who is a bit of an entrepreneur, had dirty fuel
problems in a cruising sailboat. When he tried to find a service to
polish his fuel, there wasn't one.
So his idea is to start such a service. Finding a serviceable old
bowpicker or such with deck space for barrels, hoses, spill gear, etc
and traveling marina to marina with pre publicity to service all those
pleasure boats that feel they may have a need.
So, is this feasible? Enough customers for a reasonable income?
What would customers be willing to pay? Bill by minimum charge and
then by the gallon or poundage on top of that?

If you feel this is spam don't bother answering. Just plonk me!
It's not spam, it's just looking for help to maybe set up a service
you may someday want.
Thanks
Gordon


Sounds like a good way to go bust fairly quickly, unless he sells cheap
inline filters as a sideline.
