Gas Prices Unlikely to Impact Boat Usage

April 14, 2009
ES

WASHINGTON – After an average price per gallon last summer of $3.81 – and a peak above $4.00 – this summer’s projected average regular-grade gasoline price of $2.23 per gallon is welcome news.

This prediction – made by the Energy Information Administration on Tuesday – encompasses the April through September months, according to an article today in USA Today. The group expects the monthly average to peak at $2.30 a gallon, the newspaper reported.

“With gas prices low, we expect very heavy use of boats this summer,” said Thom Dammrich, president of the National Marine Manufacturers Association, in an e-mail interview today. “Boating is extremely affordable at this level of gas prices and we expect boater’s passion for the water to get them out as much as ever!”
