Call the Gas Truck to make a " Special Delivery ". The news includes Diesel, as well. EPA one reason. Higher prices for fuel from Marina Operators another. Since it is not for road use, taxes should be less? They should have a price advantage. If they passed, that along, to Boaters, no one would buy it on the way to the marina. Another problem is fewer people are boating or at least as much because of the economy and higher marina fuel prices as well as elsewhere. |

New tank regulations have greatly increased the cost and regulatory complexity for selling fuels of all types. Small volume sellers frequently find it cheaper and easier to just get out of the business. |

Tax them out of business now they don't pay as much taxes. Elasticity of taxation. Hey, socialist or statism types figure if you can own a boat, you have money they want to steal. -- Government isn't the solution to the bad economy, it is the problem. ------ In Debt We Trust! -- Obama and the democrats, world record in debt incursion. |

Just curious why you care so much about the US? You have no interest in this great country. You claim to hate us, much like the fundamental Islamists. You clearly hate Obama, because he's smarter than you. I think you're mentally defective. |

Yep. Large gas station retailers can keep pace with the tank and saftey upgrades, but most (especially the small ones) Marina stores can't. If EPA steps in and says you have to spend $70,000.00 to meet their update requirements or quit selling fuel, what are you gonna do? Especially if you don't sell that much gross in a year? This doesn't include the liability insurance of a tank leakage into the lake, harbor or river, and clean up fees etc. |

Well, maybe for you... |
