Diesel fuel in Baltimore

Within the next week or so I will be repositioning my newly purchased boat from Baltimore to my home marina in New England. Prior to departing Baltimore I need to take on about 200 gallons of fuel. I am looking for some recommendations on which marinas in Baltimore area sell enough diesel so that I will be buying fresh fuel and not buying stuff they purchased last fall. Price is important but for a few bucks I don't want buggy diesel.

Anchor Bay East Marina on Bear Creek is a safe bet. Good price also.

BMC Lighthouse Point is usually higher in price but also sells in volume.

Thanks for the info. I need about 25 ft bridge clearance, will I find Anchor Bay accessible?

You should, but check it out. Peninsula Expressway bascule bridge is 24.9 closed. Just beyond that is a railway swing bridge which is opened unless being used. Marina is just past railway bridge on your port side.
