Default Gas station on route to East Chicago

Ok, now we know the route for the poker run, any suggestions on gas station to fill boat. We will be coming in on 80/94 to Cline Ave. Any truck stops in the area (easy access w/ boat).

Thanks,
Rick

Rick,
BZ and I get off Southbound on Cline, go about 1-1/2 miles, and there are two stations. They aren't HUGE, but if you use the one on the southeast side, you can turn left at the cross-street and shoot in to the pumps, then just pull through back on to Cline.

The marina is exit 5, but the exit just before you get to it, there's a big speedway gas station with several islands with pumps that looks like it'd be easy to get in and out of. I think it's exit #6. It'll be on your left hand side, and after you get off at the exit, you'll need to go under the x-way, and it's right there.

The Speedway is the place. Troy Links had his 47 in there as well.

Thanks, I found it on Mapquest. It is at exit 3 (Exit Kennedy North).
