Fuel service at The Boathouse is reserved for storage customers. Through SpeedyDock preparation, our team can fuel your boat while it is being readied for your time on Old Hickory Lake.
Rather than operating as a public fuel dock, this service supports Boathouse storage customers. Arrange fueling with the marina team so your boat can be prepared, filled, and closer to ready when you arrive.
Fuel service is not offered as a general public fueling destination.
Fuel can be arranged while the team retrieves and prepares your boat.
The facility uses 100% ethanol-free fuel with Primrose Fuel Additives marine additive.
Contact the marina team for current customer pricing, operational details, and instructions for arranging fuel through SpeedyDock.
Tell the team when you plan to use your stored vessel.
Ask for customer fuel service as part of the preparation.
Your boat can be launched and fueled before your planned arrival.
At The Boathouse, boat fuel goes into your tank while the crew prepares your boat. Ask for it in your SpeedyDock launch request, and the boat is fueled and waiting when you arrive. There is no line at a fuel dock and no jostling alongside other boats on a busy Saturday.
This is a service for Boathouse storage customers rather than a public fuel dock. If you keep a boat or personal watercraft on our racks, fuel is available with any launch.
Every tank we fill gets fuel with no ethanol in it, treated with Primrose Fuel Additives. Ethanol free gas for boats is popular with owners because boats often sit between trips, sometimes for weeks, and ethanol blends can attract moisture over that time. Ethanol free gasoline sidesteps much of the problem and is easier on older fuel systems.
Every engine has its own fuel requirement, spelled out in its manual. Most owners already know what their boat takes. If you are unsure, check the manual before your first request, and tell the team if your engine has special needs.
Send your SpeedyDock request as usual and add a note that you want boat gas. The crew retrieves the boat from its rack, fills it and puts it in the water. If you prefer, phone the team on 615-758-2999 and they will explain the current process and customer fuel pricing.
A long day of tubing or a run up the lake burns more fuel than an evening cruise. If you know you are heading far, ask for a full tank. Leaving with a full tank also means you will not need to look for marine fuel somewhere else on the lake halfway through the day.
Fueling at the rack fits the way The Boathouse works. The point of concierge storage is that the chores happen before you get here. Washing, launching and fueling a boat all take time, and every minute spent on them is a minute not spent on the water. Folding fuel into the launch keeps your arrival simple: park, pick up drinks in the marina store, and step aboard.
When the boating season winds down, fuel becomes a storage question as much as a running one. Many owners like to leave the boat with a fairly full tank of fuel without ethanol before a long rest, since less air in the tank means less condensation. Talk to the team before your last trip of the year about timing your final fill. They see a lot of boats through the off season and can tell you what works well on the racks.
If you are thinking about storing here, read about our indoor boat storage, then phone or send the form with your boat’s details.
Jet skis stored in our 50 watercraft spaces can be fueled the same way as boats. Include it in the launch request and the crew will fill the craft before it goes in. Personal watercraft tanks are small, so a long day of riding may use more than one tank. Plan your route with that in mind, or come back to the dock for a top-up arrangement with the team.
If you have a question about fuel and your engine, ask the crew during marina hours. They handle fueling every day in season and can tell you how the process works for your boat.
