How does fueling work. What are people doing. Are there any dockside marinas/fueling stations? Bring plenty of gas cans? Is there a gas station near by that sells 110 octane? AvGas? Non Oxygenated 93 octane. Are you allowed to beach your boat and fill the tank with a can while your on water (spillage).
Just wondering because I haven't been there before.
Thanks.

I called the marina at River Ranch. Fuel is unleaded premium at $3.50 gal. I'm coming filled but that's the first 40 gal tank. I'm staying at the rv park on the canal, my first time there as well. Hey Foley, I got a paddle and and anchor this time. Hopefully I won't need them......

well looks like I will be up and running for this one. Will have a grill on the river just north of the Camp Mack bridge under the big oak tree.
Great place to stop and watch the boats run.

You can buy AV gas at the RR airport . Someplace in Lake Wales might have race gas of some kind but that is 20 miles from RR . Most just bring gas in jugs if you need it .

You can go North (thru the locks), or South and run in the ditch. If you can adjust your schedule to get there Friday morning around 10, you can run to downtown Kissimmee for lunch with us.

I sure hate I couldn't get this thing ready for RR. Second best event of the season only to the Foley BBQ!

Sounds like we have a good reason to make a Suwanee run or St. Johns run at the end of next month.

I am getting really close, Making some minor fuel tank fitment adjustment today then start putting everything back in. Hopefully testing by the end of next week.
St.Johns would be a good one to make.

If any of you are planning to go north they are working in the river s. and n. of the bridge at Camp Mack. There are no idle zones but they do have roped barrels in the river. Also the water is low so the sand bar at the entrance to Toho canal might be a problem. Be safe.
