Hugo's Fuel Service

In Bequia there are several ways to obtain diesel fuel.

1.  You can go to the local gas station.

2.  You can call the local yacht service company and they will deliver fuel to your boat.

3.  You can call a Venezuelan flagged "Fishing Vessel" and they will help you out too!

While we watched yesterday a Venezuelan flagged fishing vessel came in, with two Customs officials from SVG aboard, and transferred more than 3000 gallons of fuel to two service boats.  Interesting as the service company advertises that they get fuel from some other source!


Maybe they were pumping the fuel out to make room for fish that they "intend " to catch?
