Dont complain guy`s.
just checked the gas prices here in Norway.
5 us $ and 34 cent. for a us gallon of gas.
that why most powerboats up in europe is diesel powered.
The boat diesel is 2 us$ 81 cent for a us gallon.
So now you probably understand why most of the powerboat are diesel powered up north.

By the way this summer I have put 89hours on my baby before I took her up. But of course I have a diesel engine in my boat.
If not I would have been really broke by now......

In Curacao, an island off the coast of venezuela. It runs about 4 bucks a gallon. "regular" is 92 octane...super is 95 octane. And the largest employer is a refinery! The refine a lot of oil from Venezuela. I think I did the math correct.. its $1.56 a litre, and the exchange rate is $1 US = $1.75 Guilders.
