Gee! 55 trips across the island on one tank of gas. Am I the only one who sees the Name EZ and Virgin Islands as an oxymoron. Hey what you wanta bet St Johns island is not virgin with EZ on it. LOL Trouble is the gas station (a converted old dilapidated lobster boat) only shows up once a month at the pier. LOL
