Come on Mark he asks everyone to conserve energy but that was after you filled the boat. You can start right after you run it dry.

I'm in. I don't want over 1,500lbs of fuel sitting on my trailer for very long. From the last time I looked I hope the lake conditions get a little better.

I just got back from the gas station. A little over 200 gallons of race fuel. I am ready to rumble!!!!!!!!!

SkaterChris and I will be at Pastrick Marina and hope to see many others. Weather is suppose to be perfect!!!

I do feel really bad for our southern friends that have suffered great losses.

As for our president, ...................

I feel the same as Mark. I filled my boat up last Sunday afternoon, almost a dollar cheaper than where the price is now. But to go out and burn up 100 gal of gas tomorrow, with all that is going on. I just don't feel right about it.

It may be a moot point with 3-5' waves anyway. I imagine I'll go out a few times yet this year. but just within a few miles of my port and then float.

If you hang on to fuel for too long it will go bad. I had to dump 200 gallons this year and I don't plan to do it again.

I promise to conserve all winter but I want to do this last official run of the year. My .02

Roger, I see your point. But promoting a run for vehicles trailering boats, boats that have not already fueled is defeating the purpose of helping out an energy crissis An energy crissis that none of us were planning before Katrina hit.
I plan to burn any left over boat fuel in my car.

What impression is our club showing by 50 boats running when we are being asked to conserve?

I'm conserving, I've still got 15 or 16, 55 gal. drums filled with 110 leaded race fuel and 93 sitting in my garage and in the shop.

I'm thinking twice about hitting the gas dock with the talk of rationing floating around....sitting on 2/3 of a tank right now, and I don't know if that'll be enough to run to Michigan City and back so I was planning on just running with the group as far as Miller Beach/West Beach and heading in for a swim...anybody game for that and maybe some BBQ on the beach? Just a suggestion...
