optimax oil in oban

Anyone know where I can buy some optimax dfi oil in oban. The weather is set fair here and I think we are going to do a load of miles this week . Just don't want to get too low.

Wish I had known, I think I have a tub of it in the garage which I won't use and I have just come back from Craobh. Think I saw you going out this morning as I was working at the top of the mast. I will be back up on Thursday night if your stuck. In the meantime try the chandalry at Ardfern marina.

If you are in Oban itself try Dunstaffnage marina or Ardoran Marine just outside. As Gordy says the next nearest place is likely to be Ardfern.

Don't know why I forgot them but Stoddarts in Oban should have it, they are an outboard dealer!
