The OH's insisted, honest!

We actually gave it an hour to let the tide turn. We had fairly thick fog and a big, sharp wallowy swell on the nose. To maintain 30knts+ we were getting a tedious amount of uncomfortable landings. An hour made all the difference.

Very much so and as always we are here to help the Floptilla in any way. We are still doing diesel and petrol and in the process of negotiating prices! Petrol will still be more than Guernsey but hopefully diesel prices will soon be more competitive!

You can also get diesel from the quay outside mainbrayce and we are in the process of negotiating prices!

Went to another fuel berth in jersey today at the Elizabeth marina, diesel 78.5p, petrol 83.5p.

Wish I checked there before taking 500 litres at 97p the other day!
