Boaters beware!! A recent authorization allowing the summer sale of gasoline containing 15% ethanol (E15) at roadside gas stations presents a problem for boaters. This type of fuel is federally prohibited for recreational vessel use, causes marine engine damage, and will void marine engine warranty. Additionally, E15 fuel has been shown to make engines run hotter, increasing the potential of a catastrophic boat fire. Signs or warning labels may not be obvious at the pump as it may simply be marked as “regular 88” or “regular unleaded”. The convenience of filling a tow vehicle and boat at the same time may cause boaters to overlook this potentially dangerous detail. Please ensure the fuel you are dispensing into your boat contains no more than 10% ethanol (E10).

In remembrance of our dear friend and Yacht Broker, James Ready

From his wife, Elisa: There will be a Celebration on Life for James Ready this Saturday, March 5th at 3 pm at Clemet Taylor Park in Destin. If you come it is a very casual gathering - James was not one for suits and ties - so shorts (dad shorts if you have them) and a casual shirt. We'll have a time for anyone to share and then we'll release a small sailboat into the water. The weather is supposed to be really nice.

We'll have a cake and punch afterward and sing him Happy Birthday Elvis style. It was his signature song to everyone.

Hope to see some of you there.
