Hunting for petrol

We headed south from Osen to the same spot we had filled up when going north. Petrol on the pier is rare and journeys with Jerry cans for over 1000ltr isn't something any of us offers to do.... As we pulled in to Vallersund it was nice to have the place relatively quiet, when filling 1000ltr it takes a while and we don't like blocking the pump for so long.
As we tied up another boat began to fill up with fuel, unfortunately the pump developed a problem and despite Hilde's best efforts the pump wasn't going to play ball. Linda and Harry opted for a Jerry can fill but we couldn't face it. So with the advice of Linda, Harry and Hilde we left for Hitra. Again the helpfulness and friendliness was much appreciated. With the chartplotters help we could see a marina in Hitra with fuel. We were surprised to arrive to an almost empty pontoon with no sign of fuel. We found out that the marina was basically a car park for the restaurant, boats are so highly used that this seems a sensible idea! More advice and we found the filling station on a nearby island. While filling we saw an otter, within meters from us, unfortunately I wasn't quick enough with my camera and it is now just a memory.
After an hour and 45 mins of filling including letting others go between fills and card problems we left heading back towards the restaurant with marina. A quiet, calm and stunning spot sounded ideal. We've now tied up and are off to an interesting looking kirk nearby. A day of chasing fuel and typically beautiful Norwegian scenery. Great!
