ethanol for newer boats

I was hoping some of you could help me. If NJ is moving to ethanol fuel this spring, what is the best way to deal with this prospectively. I have a newer Bertram with fuel injected Crusaders (1995 Moppie) so I'm going to assume my fuel tank is ok from what I've read. However, I have been hearing about the effects of the new fuel when either mixed with the old fuel or once the old fuel is out completely, just the effects of running with the new ethanol laden fuel. I recall reading somewhere that stabilizer with every tank could possibly offset the effects of the ethanol and potential water/gunk issue. Looking for thoughts / advice. Thanks.
