Hi one and all, Can anyone tel me the best, easiest to get in and out of, reasonably priced place in Sydney harbour to buy Diesel fuel, I am moored in Five Dock Bay , so somewhere arount that ends of the harbour would be great,,,Thanks in advance.....![]()
Hi, we now use Baileys at balmain / white bay (although a bit of a hike down the river from 5 dock). Once you have set up your account it all works very well, but i recall there was a bit of a creditcard issue when we first visited as a "casual" customer although this is mentioned on the web site "For AMEX please note the authorization limit is automatically set at $2000 and this will affect the credit limit of the account for 7 days"
Cost wise, i used it about a month ago and it was 2c cheaper than when i filled my car up a few days later (unheard of on the waterfront !), so it makes a heap more sense than trying to row out with jerry cans - just set your account up first. You also need to do a quick online environmental education thing which takes about 10mins. cheers.
Cabarita is the closest. I used to have a mooring in Five Dock Bay. Why go to a bowser unless you intend taking on a lot of fuel. I use a plastic jerry can to top up the tank.
