Yes, I changed the link in the first post as now I incorporated this change into the menu system.

So now the NauticalCharts are available via the normal 'gasmap' as well as the menu system.

Feel free to continue to test this and let me know of any problems.


In the mean time, report the prices! Poor Y-Landing hasn't had a price reported since July of 2016!

As of this moment, here are the docks that haven't had their prices updated yet this year:

$3.45 07/11/16 Y-Landing Marina
$2.94 05/21/17 Roberts Cove
$2.99 07/22/17 Thurstons Marine
$3.07 08/17/17 Irwin Marine
$3.25 08/27/17 East Coast FlightCraft - Winnipesaukee Gas Company
$3.69 09/08/17 Dockside Gas

If you happen to walk (or ride) past one of these gas docks, perhaps you can post an updated price, thanks!

I like it Rich. I did not know there were that many spots for gas on the lake. Knowing the price is not a biggie for me (I don't have a 'go fast' boat ) but just knowing where they are is a help. Listing hours would be a help also.

In my experience those hours vary so much that posting them might be misleading. On rainy days a gas dock may close early, while on busy days they stay open later. This time of year many are closed by 5, while during July they're open late.

A few day ago I happened to be viewing the Youtube live stream from the Flightcraft gas dock. At 5 they came out, took down the Open and American flags, cleaned off the dock and appeared to close down. About 15 minutes later I noticed a boat (not a rental return) approaching the dock and figured he'd be out of luck. To my surprise someone came running out and filled him up. Pretty good service!

This is why I list both their scheduled 'hours of operation' AND their phone number on the station detail pages. Just click on the name of any gas dock on WinniGas.com to see the detailed information which should include a phone number. I also made the phone number 'clickable' from your phone to make it easier to dial from your phone when you are on a boat.

If you're running late, or really need gas, you may want to call and be sure someone will be there.

I've been on a friends boat that was running on fumes (one engine already quit) and we called the nearest gas dock to let them know we were coming in. It would have been a big problem if we got there and they had closed 2 minutes before we arrived, as we may have had to float/glide into their dock! Luckily they waited for us.

Just click on the name of any gas dock, you'll find their listed hours of operation as well as a clickable phone number to make it easier for you to call them to be sure they are open (some times the hours of operation are a bit variable).

Has anyone been to Y-Landing or Irwin Marine this year? If yes, would you please enter a price report.

Other than Robert's Cove which is not serving gas yet, these docks haven't their prices reported yet this year.

[Poor Richard]

As of today, Y-Landing Marina fuel price is $3.979/ gal. (93 octane only)

Tank pump out is not available........wasn't sure how to change that info on the Winnigas website.

Thanks for the price entry for Y-Landing. I'll update the pump out info. Normally, just use the 'contact us' feature of WinniGas.com to report needed changes or errors.

Thanks again!


Now we just need a report for Irwin Marine and we'll have the lake pretty much covered for the month of May.

Not to be a wise guy, but you could always call them and ask.
