Seatow…

So we’ve been out a few times this week and I noticed how amazing our fuel burn has been. We ran a solid 2 plus hours and the fuel gauge never dropped below 3/4 of a tank. So we’re running home tonight and she starts coughing. About 10 seconds later she’s gone. SH!T!!! I’m 85% sure we’re out of gas. Gauge still says 3/4. How can this be?!? I’m not a mile from my marina. So I call Seatow. 5:00pm on a Tuesday evening in some crisp and windy conditions. He shows up in about an hour. Can’t complain. Pumps 10 gallons into my tank and we can’t pump the bulb hard. So he hooks us up and starts pulling us home. After about 1/4 mile, she pumps up and we get her started. He unhooks us and I give him my wife’s number. She handles this type of stuff. It wasn’t until later that I found out this guy banged me $8 bucks a gallon for 10 gallons.
$80 BUCKS FOR 10 GALLONS?!?
I should have let him drag me home. That would have been free.
