The same robbers are selling "marine" diesel for 98p a litre, imagine what that will cost when they scrap marine diesel later this year.

When are they planning on scrapping the use of red for marine use? I know they have threatened to be doing it for a few years now, but nothing has been done.

Those prices are mad, is that for the higher octane stuff? I know when I was in Vancouver, the gas dock only had the high octane petrol (99 octane, I think, as opposed to the cheaper 95 octane that we put in our car), which was about 10c a litre more than the local chevron, but that is ridiculous.

they reckon when the tax is added on the diesel it could be double the price for the larger boats, this I believe is from November . Large petrol boats have suddenly become attractive again apparently.
