Ethonol free gas on the Chesapeake

Post by Classic Trade »

For those of you still running gas, it is my understanding that Sommers Cove Marina in Chrisfield has ethonol free gas this year.

Got a guy scraping the running gear and replacing the zincs as we speak. Don't know how far I will go though. BTW, did you see where the fireworks on the 4th were canceled?

You still have ethanol up there? You can not find a marina around here selling ethanol fuel. Most of them have banners proudly stating NO Ethanol!

We were told out east that it was a distribution problem. No distributors would carry it. Not enough volume. I'd be very curious about the degree of improved performance with the non ethanol fuel.

Rawleigh,
On my way to Chesapeake Boat Basin to pick up Ralphie's new boat and deliver to Carter Creek.
FIREWORKS CANCELLED??? Typical of that crowd. New owners never understood the value of their relationship with the locals. No wonder they're in financial doo-doo.
and so it goes.
