I agree with JRC.....

The only reason I didn't mention the 4th of July in my post is that it is in the middle of the week....

I think this year I will be glad I also have a jetski..... 10 gallons of gas for the Jet Ski = fun all weekend long... 10 gallons of gas in the boat = one short boatride, and maybe a quick tubing run with the kids....

I was talking with someone last week who has one, she said she can go through $30.00 of gas in a day out on the lake on her jetski. But then again at these prices thats what 5 and 6 gallons.

Just depends on your use model.... Having water front property, I don't take the Jetski out and ride around all day.... If I take two or 3 adventures a day, I use 4 or 5 gallons..... its all relative to exactly what you are doing... Because I have also gone out on the Jet ski, exploring, and use 2/3 of my 15 gallon take in an afternoon....
