Boat dealer told me that in the summer when I was looking around??? Don't know if it's true.

absolutely gay! this better not be true, I put down the deposit and my invoice didn't show anything of a tax of anykind other then GST. mind you I haven't paid for it yet or received it, they better not try hit me with that when it comes time to pay for it in full and pick it up.
if true, any word of what they are expecting it to be? a flat rate or a %??

I never let mine get down too far... usually $100 at a time as well, my tank is 210L so at marina prices it would be $252...

But I float lots, I think I spent $300 on fuel all last summer...

My boat is used as more of a cottage than a boat... when I go I usually only cruise @ 18-20 mph and only once in a while do I open her up for short rips.
