Your lake is beautiful, it reminds me of the lakes here in Canada. Surrounded by trees and not too much development (homes) and the boats are smaller. How about sharing with your boating brothers in the good old USA what it costs to fuel up in Sweden? I am used to Canada's high prices but yours will shock boaters on this forum. This is where the States are headed if they give Obama another term. |
Thanks Gearhead Â
Well, we do have our share of lakefront properties, and bigger boats too. The video is shot a few miles away from nearest city.
Gas prices... Â Â Â
Hmmm... Â let's see if I get this right... 1 Liter = 0,26 Gallon The "on water" gas price is approx. 15 SEK / liter (Swedish Krona) 1$ = 6,6 SEK
Well guys, get your calculators! Â |
Roughly $8 A Gallon!! Â Â |
But they have these to make up for it!

Yes, if I got my numbers right...
It's less expensive "on land", the "on water" gas stations are expensive...

Yes, all women are blond, the ice bears are roaming the streets, we are all socialists, no poverty.
