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.

EPA regulations are a big reason. * New tank regulations have greatly
increased the cost and regulatory complexity for selling fuels of all

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

This doesn't include the liability insurance of a tank leakage into
the lake, harbor or river, and clean up fees etc.

So, if you can't afford to keep the environment safe, then no problem,
since profit is the most important thing. Well, maybe for you...

That is your problem D'Plume. Either you cannot figure out Tim's
comment, or you want to pick a fight.

You want to pick a fight.

Just means instead of parking boats in Miami or Boca Raton, go over to a
Caribbean island and park it there. Obama's master plan, detax America
by sending it offshore. Because if you tank holds 500 gallon, I don't
see them carting 5 gallon jerry cans all day.

Now the real war is on Obama-debt, to save America's future.
And do it for your kids sake....and ignore the selfish fleabags...

The list of subjects about which you know nothing grows larger every
day. I don't want to accuse you of being dumber than Tosk or Loogy, but,
damn, you're definitely in the same League of FLEEGs.*


*FLEEG...someone who is so dumb he might have a flat line EEG.

IF...they dropped the taxes, the Marina Operators would adjust to
cover for them. No one is honest anymore.

Remember when everyone would rather cut off their arm than violate their
Christian ethics and faith?
The very idea that you told did wrong it would
tear at your conscience so bad you would shatter until you repented.
I think Washington has a number of Folks who will repent, in their
retirement or commit suicide as they watch what they sat in motion tear
apart this Republic and our Children future.
Perhaps enough or too much money will sate their conscience? Will they
take it with them? Will they try to repent by helping the third world
become an unsustainable, for them, western Country and condemn their
Population to poverties and miseries they think they are helping them
avoid.
Perhaps the charity contributions will save their soul and sate their
conscience? Perhaps this is why alcohol consumption is so high among them?

Hmmm...please state your sources...gas/diesel is available in San
Diego Bay and Mission bay (CA) with no problem...well, except the cost
(but that has always been the case)!

Local News. Marina Operators are fed up with the lack of tax breaks.
More and more people are filling up at Gas Stations (those like me,
that trailer) instead of the Marina. I did not say they are "stopping
completely".
The Marina Operators have to sell their gas at a higher price to cover
costs, and have a profit margin. IMO....they have a LOT of "profit
margin ".
