Tiputa Village Gasoline
14° 58.8′ S · 147° 37.4′ W · approximate
A boat-works shop in Tiputa village, across the pass from the anchorage, that sells small quantities of gasoline for dinghies.
Practical
Approx: placed at the Tiputa marina (OpenStreetMap pier); the shop is a short walk away. Directions (2021): cross the pass by dinghy, continue past the village dock where the water taxi stops to the small 'marina', park there, walk left, then right on the cement street, and turn left on the main road; the boat-works shop is immediately on your left, across from the grocery store. Crossing Tiputa Pass by dinghy is only sensible near slack and in light wind.
