I can't argue with that. I have gone out on a friends boat, and I have offered to help cover the cost of the fuel.
I probably should have been clearer and stated that you may not want to broadcast that you are "asking" for $$ within earshot of someone that would be willing and able to create a problem for the boat owwner. Keep in mind that there are some people hellbent on creating problems for others simply because they are doing something to better their own situation.
Bottom line, I would suggest talking $$ before you hit the boat, and would probably not braodcast it online (just to be safe).
