What is the price of Gas at the dock

in the falmouth area?

On the vineyard they are gouging you for 3 bucks a gal. (1.99 at the pumps on the street is high enough but 3 bucks at the dock is outright robbery considering it is the exact same stuff they are selling across the street.)
Going to make the run to falmouth to top off....what am I looking at there? Any ideas?
I don't mind it so much for the car cause there is no place to drive and a tank lasts for months. But the boat....thats another story.

Not sure what the price is but East marine on Falmouth harbor traditionally has the cheapest gas prices. I am sure if you called them they would tell you.

I filled up last Sunday at East Marine in Falmouth at $1.49 a gallon fo 87 Octane. I almost couldn't believe it myself. 93 octane is still $1.99. If someone in the local area drops thier price, Phil will always drop his lower. He's going for quantity and always has the cheapest gas, I never have to think about shopping it around.

I have my boat at the Cape Ann Marina and they are couging at $2.21 per gallon on super. Ipay $1.65 for super on the road. Most Marinas pump # 93 octane. Those of you paying $1.50 are getting #87 octane. So when comparing use the #93 octane price in your area.

Acushnet River Safe Boating Club in Fairhaven was at $1.629 on Wednesday when I took on 200 gallons.
Glad I don't need to take on fuel every day!
