Hmmm, interesting idea. Perhaps a gas guzzler tax for those whose
boats fail too since boats are ussually luxury

Some sort of rationing is not a bad idea. It is at least worthy of
serious discussion by the next administration in open forums.




Are there any limits on what will be rationed?

Be careful rationing is a slippery slope to total control of the
population.

I doubt that most Parkers are seriously fuel efficient so HK should
pay the boat gas guzzler tax.

But what about that 36' Zimmerman like lobster boat?
Oh, wait, that was just another lie of Harry's.......

Maybe limit recreational boat use to 10 gallons /week or would 5
gallons/week be better?

20 gallons of gasoline a week in the summer would be fine with me.

I can head out and go fishing twice on that... :) I don't need any
boat gasoline from the end of November until near the end of April.

No way, no how, no McCain!

After considering it, 5 gallons a week is 260/year, a huge amount.
I'd propose 1 gallon/week PER boat and it cannot be accumulated for
more than a quarter because poor people with old cars need the gas AND
the marinas should have to charge a 50 cent /gallon luxury tax. Why
should gas guzzling luxury boaters use gas that poor people need?

Why should your "standard" of boat use be forced upon everyone else?
