Just a heads up, a friend of our was in Ostende about 2 weeks ago. He was the only UK boat there.
Had the usual visit from customs - then they asked about what diesel was in his tanks, he then produced the receipt but it didn't make any difference. Fined for having red diesel.
500 Euro fine + tankage.
New finance minister apparently and is very anti red diesel usage. They even fined two Belgian yachts with red in their tanks.
