Does anyone know how is the fuel shortage at the east coast impacting northbound ICW boaters and the Chesapeake Bay area?

Shortage is over. The pipeline opened up to 100% capacity on Friday. There never really was a shortage of fuel. The shortage was caused by unfounded fears of not being able to get gas, so they began hording fuel. The fuel trucks were the ones who couldn't keep up with demand. I would imagine from what I have heard that if there were supply issues they most likely be in the Carolinas.

And likely the same people that have a surplus of toilet paper!
