That's an interesting question. Though I never considered the relevance of the tax year but when filling up the boat, and I've only done it twice since the new system, I have pondered 1) Am I replacing the diesel I have used and what might has been the consumption split 2) Am I deciding on the likely split for the new tank I think I decided on the latter though that puts me in the position of possibly being unable to use the heating if my prediction turns out to be incorrect, or do I make an adjustment at the next fill. Obviously I keep highly detailed records and monitor the whole process very carefully. Beeky
