Yes I know - just too lazy to explain properly.Not quite true. The EU has told the UK that it must stop the supply of red diesel to leisure boat owners. This has been fought by HMRC (driven by the RYA) for a number of years. The UK appealed but that appeal has now been refused. The argument for continued use it that most of the fuelling stations/pontoons around the UK are A) small, and B) have insufficient turnover, to make it viable to provide additional tanks and pumps.
