New sign for gas prices went up yesterday, hoping they are going to open the pumps and not just the oil business office.

This is GREAT news!!!!! please keep us posted.. They have the best pumps to pull into while trailering..

SAMIAM · 01-15-2010, 09:20 AM

Heard that Circle K wanted to open there and the town turned them down....don't know if it's true or not.They are generally against any commercial developement.

ARV · 01-16-2010, 02:51 PM

SAMIAM: Yes, the deal with Circle K fell through at the last minute.

We have also noticed the new gas sign up and there seems to be a few people in and out of the store this week! VERY good news!!!!

Irrigation Guy · 01-16-2010, 09:53 PM

Selling gas only and the oil business office is opening too. Should be open in the next couple of weeks.

Lakesrider · 01-17-2010, 01:22 PM

I told ya there would be gas there again.....

Glad too. But let us wait and see what the prices will be. You know, before any major celebrations and all!

At what point do you think this application was turned down? There is no change of use (theoretically) which means it should not have gone to the ZBA. Did you see any notice of an application coming before the Planning Board? Where else could it have been turned down? The PB certainly has sent mixed signals regarding business development but this doesn't make sense.

ARV · 01-18-2010, 07:02 PM

Before Rob's Gas Depot closed, I was told by an employee that Circle K backed out at the last minute (my only speculation was the price?), nothing with the town preventing them from the purchase.

At least we'll all have another location for gas and yes, hopefully the prices will be favorable by all!

OCDACTIVE · 01-27-2010, 08:13 AM

have the gas pumps reopened yet?

Lakesrider · 01-27-2010, 11:16 AM

Well, that is starting to become the trend at Moultonborough Gas stations. The lights are all on but no gas in the pumps....

SAMIAM · 01-28-2010, 07:53 AM

They'll be lovin' you OCD, when you pull in with that beautiful boat for a $300 fill up. Well worth it though.

Thanks Sam.. I filled up there every time last year (as you saw) How could they have gone under??? LOL. It's a 100 gallon tank and I could only use premium due to the supercharger.. Luckily this year I have had it removed and brought back to stock so I can get away with mid-grade.

Lakesrider · 01-28-2010, 08:21 AM

Yeah no need for any superchargers on the lake anymore eh? I was thinking about taking out my big 8s and sticking an electric trolling motor on the back of my 30 footer.

fatlazyless · 01-28-2010, 08:32 AM

As you probably know, a gallon of gasoline weighs 6-lbs, which is 2-lbs less than a gallon of water

!

So a hand carry, portable 100-gal tank would only weigh 600-lbs plus the weight of the container, plus it's flash-explosive and a hazadous material to just about everything, including asphalt paving.

Sorry I don't follow.. what does this have to do with Fullers or filling a tank?

No prices on the signs as of this afternoon, but there were two Fuller trucks in the parking lot

Irrigation Guy · 02-02-2010, 09:39 PM

Have seen a couple police cruisers hanging out there looking for some gold. Does that count?

Surprised they haven't opened up yet, I got the impression, via telephone, they would be.

WeirsBeachBoater · 02-02-2010, 11:04 PM

From a reliable source, Hoping to be pumping gas some time next week.

Formula · 02-03-2010, 02:49 PM

I hear that the store will remain closed until they find an operator

Lakesrider · 02-10-2010, 07:55 AM

Yeah and that Citgo sign at Exit 23 has been out for months.....

Does anyone remember the date that the old station closed?

OCDACTIVE · 02-27-2010, 02:23 PM

breathe easy · 02-27-2010, 04:07 PM

Not yet. I did some Fuller trucks working on the pumps the other day.

trfour · 02-27-2010, 07:35 PM

Them are some pretty talented trucks!

corollaman · 03-06-2010, 11:13 PM

I think Fred Fuller is looking to open up a store at Lexington Drive in Laconia. I saw them in there the other day, I don't know if they indeed are gonna start up there, but it would be nice. I work in the Smith's Aerospace plant in the O'shea Industrial Park, and I used to go there all the time for stuff for lunchbreak when it was Reed's store. Hopefully maybe they open up there again.

OCDACTIVE · 03-17-2010, 07:03 AM

surprised there is no news on the pumps.... Figure they would have wanted them up and running for spring........ only time will tell I guess.

I loved this response. Laughed and laughed and then went to see who trfour was and read his very interesting site! Lots of interesting photos for sure. Hope he finds out that the first batch is repeated many times before the last entry. Some might not see the second entry because of that so maybe edit out the repeats?

OCDACTIVE · 03-21-2010, 11:43 AM

anyone seen or heard if / when the pumps will open?

robmac · 03-22-2010, 12:14 PM

Just start showing up in the parking lot and make sure you drive by one of the CCTV camera's with you boat.... They should get the hint.....

robmac · 03-22-2010, 04:32 PM

I told them that was the reason for the call,need lots of boat gas she then put me on hold and came back with the reply of no idea of reopening date.

But I guess one can read into that, that there is going to be a reopening date rather then we are not going to be reopening........Right? I hope!

robmac · 03-22-2010, 04:41 PM

that's all one can do, HOPE And with my loaner boat till I sell her need to fill up cheap

Lucky1 · 03-22-2010, 05:10 PM

I see nothing happening at all at Fullers at the moment.

OCDACTIVE · 04-15-2010, 05:15 PM

Only 1 month until the season starts to kick into high gear.. Hoping they open..

Not looking too good right now.

OCDACTIVE · 04-28-2010, 10:17 AM

Well its time........ I am on my way up this Friday and I would like to swing through Fullers as I did everytime last year to fill up the Truck and Boat....

Please tell me the gas pumps are up and running!

Gatto Nero · 04-28-2010, 11:07 AM

Not as of yesterday

robmac · 04-28-2010, 02:28 PM

cool.. I will keep it in mind. I was going to try the Irving in Meredith. I think you can come in on the right and go around the back of the building. The only issue is the pump will be on my left and the tank is on the right.

I was able to fill up at the irving off of exit 23. they have enough room behind the building to make the swing.

I am going to try Skellys this coming weekend. Provided they are not packed as usual I should be able to swing in.

I went past fullers a few times this weekend and there doesn't look to be any activity. What a shame. I used to love not only getting gas there but the shop and deli were great as well.

Dhuberty24 · 05-03-2010, 02:22 PM

Didn't get out of work till late, So didn't get over to the island till 7:00. Couple of my friends saw your boat in alton, they said it looks great.

Thanks.. I appreciate that. Awesome to hear after an entire year going by waiting for it to be fixed.

I should be out this weekend depending on weather and when my GPS will be completed. Drop me a PM if you want to meet up.

DoTheMath · 05-03-2010, 02:33 PM

Ohhhh, your GPS will be completed in plenty of time! What time you gonna be awake on Sat. morning - no sleeping in, I'll be looking for your mug at the VK for some grub by 9:00, if not a little sooner.

LOL.. why not save some $ and I will cook you breakfast.. We are up WAY earlier then that. Remember I have a 2 year old.. We usually are up and ready to go by 7 am. However our friend SL will be up so it could be a late night on Friday.. You are welcome to join us!

PS: if you would like to do the VK, I would be more then happy to take you out, however definately would want to get their early. That place packs up on the weekends!

VERY NICE! I have a livorsi GPS Speedo on mine, and frankly it isn't working for some reason. I am not sure if it is the antenna or I hear there is a battery inside the sending unit but I hope to figure that out this weekend as well.

Funny thing is there is no requirement you have to have a speedo. I basically am just going by my RPM's breaking in the new engine.

Yeah, 2 y.o can do that to you, mine still does now and then, and he's 5. Thanks for the offer but I'll prob just stop at Winni Bayguls on the way in and grab a sand and coffee, (will grab a doz for you guys if you want 'em!?). I'm only up for the day Sat as it is Mothers Day w/e so need to be home for Sunday.

This of course is the interesting part of having a speed limit on the lake. There is no requirement for speedometer on boats. Now that doesn't mean that most boats don't have them. But it also means, some don't operate, some aren't accurate at all.... That is what will make this law so hard for the Marine Patrol to enforce, with out having a sizable slush area. In car speedometer are calibrated and set up to work giving a reasonable estimate of speed. On a boat they are not. If the sending unit doesn't sit right in the water a tube gets block an electrical connection corrodes etc. The Accuracy goes down.

Having a GPS Speedo of course is going to be the most reliable and best way to go.

Just yet another reason the speed limit on the lake is going to be hard to enforce, and cause issues in the court system. As boaters, who have legitimate marine speedometers fight speeding tickets for going 5 to 10 mph over a speed limit which their gauge says they where meeting or just barely exceeding by 1 mph or so.

The Marine industry is not set up to handle this type of issue. Marine speed guages in 90% of the boats are set up to give a best guess to speed and have calibration issues that are exceedingly bad.

But then again I suppose we can just all put GPS units in our boats and we will all be safe.

not getting into that debate however on the GPS issue they are not accurate either. As an example if you are turning or doing a wide turn it measures the closest distance between point A and B which can actually give you a false reading showing that you are going faster then actuality. But GPS is definately the most accurate.

P.S. Sorry for my earlier rant...I am having my Monday lake withdrawl and it seems to be worse then normal.... the only remedy.... get back to the lake!!!!!!!

P.S.S good point about accuracy of gps speedo in a cornering maneuver never thought about that

Don't know where the other thread disappeared to??

But Memorial Day weekend is fast approaching and I would have thought that if the pumps would be open they would be before that.

Any change? Any news on when / if the pumps will be opened up?

eillac@dow · 05-20-2010, 01:44 PM

My mom just went up to the lake this morning. I just gave her a call to ask if it was open....and the answer was NO.

I also gave the Fred Fuller Oil Co. a call to ask if they could advise if "Fullers" would be re-opening again and the response was...."maybe sometime in the future".

Did they ever open? I was planning to stop in to buy diesel fuel for my VW yesterday, but it was not open. All the signs say, "Fuller", so they must have anticipated opening.

Lakesrider · 09-20-2010, 09:15 AM

Not saying it opening...but I noticed a guy in a small bucket truck painting around the big canopy roof over the pumps the other day......

Like I said before they only have a certain time frame, one year, to use the tanks or claim those tanks abandoned and have to rip them up or fill them in. There is no waiver of this. I am guessing it has been a year already.

I still think that all very strange. To have an asset like that and leave it unused, when so many are unemployed and looking for work. Must be good to be Mr. Fuller.

eillac@dow · 09-20-2010, 09:17 AM

Just yesterday....my mother said....can you ask on the Forum what is happening with Fullers? Evidently my brother saw a couple of guys there working and stopped in and asked what the plans were. Sorry to say, but no other information other than....painting the place...was passed along.

Would love it if people knew the story.

songkrai · 10-29-2010, 09:40 AM

The company owns the land next door.

I heard rumor that company wanted to put propane tanks in for the fuel business and that town denied them. Just heresay mind you.

Place has been painted and looks like they are maintaining property.

Don't have a clue why they don't open again. They sold a lot of petrol. And convenience stores in locations such as this do well. If stringent theft controls are put in place AND a good store manager is in place. Management was lacking with the last two owners.

As it stands - looks like a waste of a good retail resource.

From what I heard, the gas station was run by one of the daughters who lost interest in the operation.

Lakegeezer · 12-09-2010, 08:33 PM

When passing by today, noticed a sign saying they would be open soon, and there was a new price for fuel oil on the sign. It would be nice to give Greens Irving some competition and lower their $2.99 gas prices.

I saw the sign also. I really hope it opens once again!

TomC · 12-10-2010, 07:38 AM

or do you suppose the convenience store will be brought back to life as well?

Lakesrider · 12-10-2010, 07:44 AM

Hate to tell you but they are saying that the gas prices are going to go up $0.15 in the next week or so. Not much room for competition there. A barrel of oil is going to be over $90.00 soon. Although, and this is just me...but Fuller could do well having the store there. If he had prices lower than the Irving up the street and had the great sandwiches of old. I'd buy all my gas there. Once he gets a loyal following, he could be more competitive. He is a business man so I imagine he has been thinking of something. Like I said he has quite an asset there.
Also I keep reminding people that when gas prices got up last time the economy went down the toilet. Yes there were other factors, but youo have to admit gasoline had a big part to do with it all. So......get ready. Once again, high gas prices, less going out to stores. Less spending in restaurants.....Yikes. Talk about a roller coaster. Makes it tough to save for retirement.

Yep, just came home that way. $3.05 Reg. Irving in Meredith, $3.02, Irving at Moultonborough neck $3.09. Skelly's $3.10.
Fullers is at $3.49 for diesel, same as the Moultonborough neck Irving.

I really miss the store and the lottery and just being able to run there and get almost anything that one runs out of at the last minute when guests are there etc. I will be one happy gal when there is a gas station with a convenience store on that corner. I do not buy a lot at convenience stores as I am price conscious, but when I really need something fast, I don't care about the price as much.

So a hand carry, portable 100-gal tank would only weigh 600-lbs plus the weight of the container, plus it's flash-explosive and a hazadous material to just about everything, including asphalt paving. __________________ ... down and out, liv'n that Walmart side of the lake!

We have also noticed the new gas sign up and there seems to be a few people in and out of the store this week! VERY good news!!!!

ARV Senior Member Join Date: Sep 2009 Location: Moultonborough Posts: 53 Thanks: 0 Thanked 4 Times in 4 Posts	Before Rob's Gas Depot closed, I was told by an employee that Circle K backed out at the last minute (my only speculation was the price?), nothing with the town preventing them from the purchase. At least we'll all have another location for gas and yes, hopefully the prices will be favorable by all!

Does that count? Surprised they haven't opened up yet, I got the impression, via telephone, they would be.

corollaman Senior Member Join Date: Feb 2009 Location: Laconia NH Posts: 181 Thanks: 8 Thanked 10 Times in 9 Posts	I think Fred Fuller is looking to open up a store at Lexington Drive in Laconia. I saw them in there the other day, I don't know if they indeed are gonna start up there, but it would be nice. I work in the Smith's Aerospace plant in the O'shea Industrial Park, and I used to go there all the time for stuff for lunchbreak when it was Reed's store. Hopefully maybe they open up there again.
