That entire boat is fucked, any fiberglass degraded and probably some internal foam turned to napalm ๐Ÿคฆ

Yep. Every bit in there is molten goo.

I save and collect styrofoam garbage, jam it in a pickle jar of unleaded, instant napalm. You can light soaking wet firewood with that shit.

I've upped my game by drying it on cookie sheets in the summer sun. Cut into bits, pack out on the trail or campsite.

What gas station would let any pump run that high a total on it? Cards used at the pump typically have around a $100 cap per transaction and if a clerk was paying attention they should notice that no vehicle is going to hold that much at one shot.

It's in litres so it's not in the states, but a most gas pumps in the where I used to live all removed the $100 limit because you couldn't fill up your 20+ gallon tank at $5-6 a gallon

231 liters is 61 gallons. A lot of commercial trucks have tanks in that size range, or bigger for full semis. Boats can pretty big as well, many into the 40s or 50s
