Off to Margarita....
Ap 11 7:02 AM Just a quickie....we are off to Margarita...a long overnight. The weather shows decreasing winds over the next 48 hrs. I was down to my last 12 gallons of diesel. This guy on a big old steel boat is the only fuel available. They goes down to Margarita and buys the stuff, pays the duty and sells it for $2.77US a gallon. If I wasn't going to Margarita I would have filled up, but .40US sounds better. The normal price down here is about $5US a gallon. Was looking at fuel bladders for next yr. A 150 gallon bladder cost about $620. Filled with $.40 a gallon diesel you would save $540 US. Really have to look into this....We went diving yesterday....Joyce will have the pics up when we get to Margarita....
