You will probably not need to refuel the yacht during your charter but you may need to add engine oil or fuel for the dinghy outboard motor. When topping up the main engines oil do so from a small size container and not a gallon or 5 litre size, it is much easier to handle. Mop up any spills in the engine bilge area before they contaminate the bilge water and dispose of rags or paper towels properly.

If taking diesel or gasoline from a fuel dock never leave the pump unattended and do not try to fill the tank to it fullest level, this usually results in overflowing. It is often easiest to take the portable tank from the tender and fill it from the dock.
