Things To Know If You Are Planning To Bring Your Own Boat
All participants in the Bermuda Big Game Classic are entitled to a fuel discount! Thanks to the support of Rubis Energy and PW's Marina, the Bermuda Triple Crown is happy to offer all participating boats a substantial markdown on fuel. Based on current fuel price we estimate fuel will cost around $4.95 per gallon with this discount. Contact Mike Carey at 441-532-3625, mcarey@thewaterfront.bm to place your order. Fuel to foreign boats is also duty-free when you are ready to leave port heading out of the country. This will provide additional savings on your last fill-up (a 50 percent savings). The duty-free fuel is available at the Dock Yard: 441-234 0300.
