Email: Diesel profiteering?

Published: Wednesday, 04 September 2013

The price of Red Diesel on the Llangollen Canal by the ABC Leisure marinas is nothing short of disgraceful.

£1.04 per litre—100% heating at Blackwater Meadow, Wrenbury Mill and Whitchurch Marina.

And yet at Anderton Marina on the Trent & Mersey Canal it was 89 pence in the middle of August.

Suspicions point to profiteering on the fuel used by hire boats at these marinas on the Llangollen.

[We paid 95p at Sawley Marina for the diesel we used for the Mikuni for heating. Our Orph Mable tells us it is 86p at Oxley Marine on the Staffs & Worcs.—Editor.]
