In Response To: ethanol for newer boats (greg)

As I understand it, your being both new and fuel injected works in your favor. Seems the shelf life of the new fuel is quite short and given the fact that the heaviest use of boats is on weekends and unless you're going Canyon fishing, you're not going to consume the full contents of your tank. Throw in a family wedding or a rainy weekend and fuel will sit. Stabilizer with every tankfull would seem to be a sensible caution until we know more about what this fuel is going to do or not do to our engines. Walter
