My boat is slipped with a 50 gallon tank so other than the initial fill while on the trailer, a gas station on the road is not a realisitic option.
The highest octane I have seen on the lake is 91, available at Y landing.

Default Question

Our marina is adding the stabilizer for ethanol this year to their tank. Is this common around the lake?

Yes it is...Unfortunately they are all adding different stabilizers so in my opinion (and the opinion of Jeff Fay, Fay's Marina head mechanic) it's best to try and buy your gas at the same place so your not mixing stabilizers.

Some places are using Startron, others Valvtech or something different. I am trying to get a list of what each marina is using so I know where to gas up in the future. Right now I am gassing up at Fays as they are not using stabilized fuel and I add my own (Marine Stabil). Haven't had any issues yet.
