Hi Matt
The Government has exempted marinas from the requirement so you�ll still be able to get fuel without ethanol.

The original statement was a marine Engine owner
that cant use E10 or Premium fuel
See here
http://www.mynrmacommunity.com/motoring/2010/05/07/unleaded-to-be-phased-out-in-2011/So maybe worth looking into
thought I guess they'll nail you price wise
(if you can afford a boat you can afford the fuel to run it would be the logic...be interesting to know & see what it hits after July 1 )
anyone near a marina want to monitor this?

I see... yeah forgot about the mercury side of it.. and actually incandescent could be made to last a lot longer
Electronics was my bag but thats all changed these days and all this green flies in the face of consumerism and built in obsolescence
so go figure? *shrugs*
how can you be Green when the worlds very existence Financially works on producing crap that lasts 5 minutes...hard one
anyway I hear you mate
Sorry off topic I know
back to more so topic
so it seems this phase out is a GREEN move to cut pollution
again seem like another badly thought through idea
hope a news link ok

Quote
An ACCC report released last month reiterated a concern "that there was a risk that limited supply and growing mandated consumption could lead to higher ethanol prices".

sounds about right when you great a monopoly thorough lack of choice anyway Humm
Quite
A report on the Seven Network last night claimed the government also ignored warnings from its crown solicitor that a move to force motorists to use either ethanol or premium-blend fuel could be illegal.
