Just when you thought it was safe to go to Belgium…
Yes, they’re doing it again! Despite reassurances by the Belgian authorities, a boater was fined 500 euros on 3 May in Nieuwpoort for having pink diesel in his tank despite having receipts to prove that 100% duty had been paid. We understand that, thanks to intervention by the Cruising Association, the fine was refunded.
Well here we go again, they can say goodbye to 10’s of thousands of revenue. Well done Belgian…
