"Verizon News" wrote in message news:%NOni.4475$SM6.2392@trnddc01... The cost of marine diesel for your boat is outrageous these days. I am all for businesses making an honest buck and I am all for http://www.billharder.com/boating/39...are-outrageous Anybody who buys a trawler deserves to pay out the ass for his fuel. Those trawlers are ugly, smelly, noisy and make about as much sense on the water as driving a semi tractor on the road for your road trip vacations. I have no sympathy for anybody who runs a diesel engine for recreational purposes. Don't you realize how much pollution a marine diesel engine produces? It's totally selfish and irresponsible. Anybody running a marine diesel for recreational purposes is sick in my opinion. No regard whatsoever for clean air and a clean marine environment. When somebody's 'fun' takes precedence over my rights (to a clean environment) then I cannot excuse such hedonism. I wish they'd jack the price of recreational marine diesel up to about fifty bucks a gallon. Maybe people would be forced to buy environmentally friendly sailboats that use small, clean-air, 4-stroke, gasoline outboards when needed but use sails most of the time. When your 'cruising' is a blatant act of pollution and you don't even realize it then you're just clueless and nobody I want to associate with.... Wilbur Hubbard |
