To assist Melbourne's boaties to maximise their boating dollar, St Kilda Marina Club is pleased to provide our Bay Fuel Watch Report. Every week on Friday SKMC contacts the suppliers listed below and we'll let you know where the cheapest fuel on the bay is.

Some recent comments from boat owners across the bay:

"I just saved over $300 by checking the Bay Fuel Watch report!" - Lenny

"It's fantastic that Pier Marine is now the cheapest fuel on the bay and it takes about the same time to get there as it did to St Kilda." - Nick

"This is great!  We can now buy Premium Unleaded from Pier 35 cheaper than we used to buy Regular Unleaded from St Kilda Marina." - Sue

"What a bloody great idea from SKMC." - Jim
