I don't even want to guess. I am afraid if I add up my receipts, boating wont be as much FUN!!

Last year, three full 100 gallon tanks at about $1.60 a gallon or so. The last half of the last tank ended up in my truck after I hurt my motor. So, last year was an easy fuel bill I guess. Other years, I could not tell you how many tanks or how much money, I average over 100 hours a season. May to end of Sept.

I boat a lot! When it's running....:mad:

I think I average about 50-70 gallons a weekend, depending on the weather. Alot of driving around in a circle on a lake 4 miles long :( From memorial day to labor day, i run up there :D

So at $3 a gal I don't even want to add it up :eek:

It's all relative

2 to 3k per year

4 months of boating

2 454 mag mpi's gas at the bargain price of 1.90 -2.20 per gallon

I agree with all of you who want to delete this thread ... i only ever thought about it as $150 bucks each time ... It seems so much worse when you add it all up ... If I didn't boat and spend all the money on gas, beer, dockage, beer, weekend trips,beer, repairs, beer, and upkeep not to mention the depreciation on the boat I could be a very rich man but I would't have any fun with money in the bank

therefor its all relative .... you can't take it with you so might as well throw some damn good boating parties.

Gas $2500
Dock 800

Depreciation 4,000
Repair & upkeep 1,000

Getting to tell the story about your drunk friend passing out naked on the sunpad at 2:00pm at Put-In-Bay ......PRICELESS
