It’s been like a week !
The answer is self evident. The financially secure second home owners at the lake will pay what we have to for the enjoyment of the boats.
The folks up for a day or a week or so will be seriously impacted by gas prices for driving to work and of course boats .
The locals that seem to dislike us flatlanders will be happy and restaurants and businesses that rely on flatlanders will flounder.
Give it 30 days
Thanks! Has fuel on the water increased at the same rate as the pumps? I know it is premature and lots can change in the coming weeks - just curious if the recreational boating scene happening now is seeing any impact or, as you indicate, it's just a cost that is absorbed for the moment.

The sleet and return of the cold here in the northeast is turning my mind to the summer on the island!
