Default Fuel in Yarmouth

As we're planning coming over from Poole and running on petrol. Its likely that I'm going to need to top up the tanks before heading off in the morning to Newton/Mercury.As I've not been there since the last time and been too tight to buy an update for the almanac. Do they still sell petrol in Yarmouth or will it be a hike to the nearest garage with umpteen gerry cans.....

They had a petrol pump there on Sat, although the LPG tank has now gone I see.

83p at Lymington... I wonder if it works out cheaper to go there and back from Southampton than it is to fill up for 0.94p on the hamble??

I know where I am going for my pre-season test run...

Where is the fuel pontoon?
