Diesel bowser service in Dartmouth?

[jimmy_the_builder]

Is there still a bowser service available in Dartmouth? We're in Kingswear for the next couple of days and I'd like to know if there is a cheaper alternative to the fuel barge - we need about 500l I guess. TIA for any info.

Cheers
Jimmy

Haven't heard of one. Cheapest fuel we've found around there is at Brixham Marina. Only a slight detour for you if you're heading up Channel. If you're going t'other way there's more choice in Plymouth.

Thanks - sounds like Brixham then (heading back to Btn tomorrow).

Weymouth was always cheaper than Brixham if you can get that far

Hi Nick

Yep - I've always found Weymouth cheap in the past as well - but I want to route directly back from here (Dartmouth) to Brighton. In the end, surprisingly, the Dartmouth fuel barge ended up being the cheapest local option - Brixham was 90ppl based on 60:40, and Dartmouth was 86ppl - this is their 500l+ rate, if you take less than 500l it is 98ppl. (By contrast, Brighton was 76ppl yesterday, no minimum).
