At what price do you guys predict gas will top out at this summer?? Just paid $3.05 and its only April? This may mean a few less trips for people this summer.......

FYI, My whosale price on Diesel just went up .17 cents today for those of you that might want to fill up today before it hits the streets. I have a 1000 gallons of the cheaper stuff in the ground and then the prices go up, and I am sure the other stations are in the same situation. Just thought I would let the HB community know. :cool:

It isn't going to matter what the price of gas is going to be this summer....I'll still go. I never spent much of my day parked in one spot, so I'll continue to use the boat as much as I used too. The problem will be that instead of going out to the 'Zoo 8-10 times a year, it will end up being 4-6. I still have a family that likes to tube, wake board, and ski, so my gas will go up about $100 per day! Well, I can think of worse things than only being able to use my boat at the 'Zoo 4-6 times a year.

Another reason to consider a pontoon boat. The Skater is about $500 for the weekend and the pontoon is about $60.00. Nice to have a choice...

That would be a nice alternative, but I'm going from a stock 496 magHO to a 540! From 87 to 91, from FI to a damn 1050 on top!
I can almost here the gas gauge moving! :cry:

Do you have to run 91 with the 525 or can you run the 87 like on the 496HO? I am talking mfr recommendations....
525 EFI = 87 Octane :wink:

With the 525 you are supposed to run only 87.
