Last Fuel stop before Fraser??

[Heath]

Am heading to Fraser next week. Where is the last petrol station before getting on the barge at Inskip? ???

in rainbow beach.

I would make sure I topped up as best I could in Gympie or Maryborough depending which way your coming. BP & Shell at Rainbow are extremly dear. Over a $1 / Litre.

Cheers

We usually fill up at the Matilda in Gympie then just do a top up in Rainbow before heading across...... :)

[sharkbait]

Shell at Tewantin then another ten litres or so at Rainbow - the shell at Tewantin is a fair bit cheaper...

Heath,

Are you going via Gympie or are you doing the better run up Cooloola Beach. I'd advise the beach run meaning a stop at Tewantin and a top up at Rainbow.

Fuel isn't that dear on Fraser #:o :o :o

Wait till you take your boat and fish for 4 or so days to the wide grounds then fill car and boat #:o :o :o

[Heath]

yeah,

Not to worried about the price, just that they don't take Fleet card on Fraser :'(

Bloody Gympie! I hate the place, is Cooloola a better run? Quicker? or just cause its along the beach?

i went over last year it cost me 120 dollars to fill my nissan patrol over there, i did a little more driving than i expected but that's life pay a little extra for staying in paradise. although i now take at least 100 litres fuel with me

Nothin wrong with Gumpie if ya like Bean picking and inbreds.

All of the above. If you can time a dead low run, it will take a good half hour off your trip. And it feels like more since it's better scenery. Just resist the temptation to stop at every good looking gutter ;D
