The above comment made by knowit had no good will as claimed, and, in the 11 years I've been on this forum, I've not heard one complaint about the fuel at Pier 19...and there's even a Winnigas app for hundreds/thousands of users tracking fuel costs, additives, etc.

AND if it was a widespread issue, you don't think the myriad Facebook pages or this forum would have posts about similar issues?

Hell, if someone comes within 150' of another boater, there's a thread about it in seconds.

It just feels disingenuous.

I agree it feels disingenuous, but that's not really for me to judge; I do not know knowit, mistakes happen everywhere, and I care a lot more about gas in the water than a fly in my soup.

Another way to look at my assertion than knowit should call the authorities is that it pressure-tests his conviction. First, if he's not serious, he will not call. Second, if he's mistaken, they will know right away.

I'm not sure why you think it would be a problem for Pier 19 if he called DES. If there is no water in the gas, the inspector and owner can chuckle over the "dope" who called in and have a Coke together. If I were the owner of Pier 19, I would much prefer that to him posting online as he has done.

Filled up our pontoon boat there Saturday. Ran all weekend with no problems.
There was a steady stream of boats in and out of the gas dock. Seems like if there was a widespread problem, it would have affected more than one person?
