Given that I can tow the ski a couple miles down the road to the gas station, I'm wondering if I should be planning on doing that—at ~$2.30/gallon I'd be buying my costs in half.
I'd want to use an ethanol neutralizer/stabilizer, but that only looks to add ~$.16/gallon which would still be much cheaper.
Is there anything else added to "marina" gas that would justify the added cost?

Given where you are on the lake my guess is your at Arcadia campground, or you going to be storing you ski on the trailer? Jet ski's are light on gas, my suggestion is to tow it to the gas station and fill it up. Or by five gallon tank, and fill it up, sitting on the trailer, where ever you store it. This is how I keep my costs down.... I have 5 cans, I fill them up and then fill the boats up, with a siphon at my dock...
