Where do you fill her up with gas? Cans, station or marina?

I use a 14 gallon Gas Buddy rolling tank and two 5 gallon Jerry cans. I lower the boat down some and put the 14 gallon can on a park bench. Gravity fills my boat. I cut off the spigot/hand pump off the hose.

I gas up at the marina. We don't have a trailer, and I don't want to deal with hauling 5 gallon jugs down a bunch of stairs.
The marina I have always used is NON ethonol gas and has historically been the least expensive on our lake..... still quite a bit more than the local regular gas stations.

Lots of good ideas here. Our cheapest gas is about 10 miles away on south side of lake. Street gas, good prices. Sometime I fill from cans at home, especially when I need gas from the boat for other duties. Only from good cans - kind of pricey but check around - https://www.industrialproducts.com/mate ... -cans.html also look at Uline -- https://www.uline.com/Grp_451/Safety-St ... code=WS792 Also Ebay. I hate those plastic enviro crap gas cans. I've fixed a few but still suck.
