Will There Be A Tiger In Your Tank?

 

… or an echo?

 

We want to know what percentage of Canada’s on-the-water retail fuel outlets plan to continue selling fuel this summer.

 

Will your tanks be full, or empty?

 

The new millennium tiger in your tank is a real tough guy; it is ethanol. Is your fuel going to contain ethanol? Can your distributor be sure there’s no ethanol in their truckload?

 

We are concerned that today’s high fuel costs, our short boating season and the major investment required to offer fuel on the waterfront, may result in reduced availability for boaters. An additional concern is the environmental issue that arises when people fill their boat up on the water from portable cans.

 

If you own, operate, manage, or work at an on-the-water retail fuel outlet, please take a moment to answer our brief and anonymous questionnaire.

 

This will only take a minute and we promise we will share the results with everyone in next week’s Newsweek. Thanks for your help!
