Fuel in hamble
If any of you are like me, and like to head down to the boat after a stressful day in the office... or a hot day in the office... infact, after any day in the office... then you will probably find sometimes you need fuel....

The fuel pontoon at Port Hamble closes normally between 5 and 5:30, but I found last night that the fuel pontoon at the Premier Marina (was moodys) now does fuel up to about 8pm!

He said if you were to call ahead just to make sure, it shouldnt be a problem.

The telephone number is 01489 885000

Is it premier marinas that sell fuel at cost? or is that only open to people who keep their boat in a premier marina?

I asked the same question last night.

Fuel there is £1.04/litre rather than £1.17/litre at mdl.

If you either have a berth, or leave your boat there over night, you can get fuel at cost. - which is I think 98p/litre - not bad at all!

I'm sure it was more than that the last time I was there...

And my boat lives on the water, so it means I have to take fuel cans.. becomes a pain. Jet is a ~£12/100litre saving, I agree, and more often than night, A very kind friend who has a unit in drivers gives me a hand to collect fuel from Jet. Just saying if you want to pop out at night, it makes life a bit easier being able to grab it on the water
