Speaking of high fuel prices,
 
I heard rumor (I can't confirm, nor deny) that gas is going to hit $4.
bucks per gal. by august.

Not only will that hurt (as in stab) the economy, but my boating will
be pretty well done. for a while......

CRAP!

Ah yeah, give Israel tthe wink and let em go nuts
and put the smack-down on Syria and Iran ? If
thats all causing bad oil prices, let em get it all out
of their system.

Seriously, most of us are driving 4, and 6 cylinder
3, and 4L engines, and not doing it everyday, so
its _not_ really hurting us like you may think it is.

Was at a boat dealer/marina in Beloit, WI., yesterday and the handwritten
sign on the counter said "gasoline, $4.00 per gallon".

But Semi Trucks don't and they struggle to get better than 6 mpg. Not
counting all the fiberglass, plastic, and that you wouldn't imagine
being made out of petroleum.

it all leads to prices going up in every comodity.

Look for a dramatic moderation in prices immediately after Labor Day.
Then expect further notable decreases through the first Tuesday in
November. After that, hang on Matilda- I think she's a gonna blow. $5
by next Memorial Day, or $6 a the fuel dock. Just my pessimistic
opinion- I could be wrong and I sincerely hope that I am.

Can you slow down or stay a bit closer to home port to save the fuel
you feel you'll need to save to keep on boating?

In the news, when you hear that a barrel of oil's gone up in price, they
always follow that statement with a reason. Do you remember what that reason
is? To keep this thread less cluttered, the reason is not supply & demand.

Supply and demand.
Investment speculation that oil will be scarce in the near future due to
destabilization of the Middle East.
