Why in the world do you care what the prices of fuel on Lake Lanier is?

I might want to know - I might be taking the Ranger there this summer.

It is cheaper than any gas you buy up your way, but it will not be the same when you get here.

Why does anyone care what the price of fuel is in another area?

I boat in three different states - MA, NY and RI - prices vary by
state - ipso facto, I'd like to know what the prices are.

MA cheapest. NY and RI will be very close in price, but they will be different every time you go out.

I don't care what the price of fuel in Ohio, CA or NY is, and I really can't figure out why anyone would.

See above - not necessarily Ohio or CA, but NY - well...

Why do you care?

See Item 1. :>)

I can understand why someone might be interested in the cost of gas in an area they will be boating in. With the cost of fuel being so volitable, the only thing I can tell you is the price will change, and my guess is it will go up.

Any prices you read in rec.boats will be obsolete by the time you get to the dock.

Now, the price of sunblock will remain fairly constant, what is the cost of SPF 45 up your way. ;)
