64 gallons

was at a dining and bar sat nite which was located on the water.as i pulled into parking lot noticed a police,fire dept activity near the water.saw a couple of people looking to see what was going on.proceeded in and sat at the bar and ordered dinner.a few minutes later a customer walked in and got on his cell phone.said to his friend a new boat owner had pulled up to fuel dock and pumped 64 gallons of gas into his rod holder.fuel started coming out his bilge pump when error was discovered.fire dept had to foam dock area and make sure area was safe.so much for the price of gas.

That's gotta be a costly ordeal no matter how you look at it.

You could freaking sell a thousand tickets at $10 a pop for ringside seats the first time the guy launches

I know someone who had an attendant pump that much fuel at the Vineyard Haven Texaco station a few years ago. It cost the station and Texaco mucho dineiro to clean boat and off-load fuel.
