Octane is octane. Your grades will be regular, mid, and premium no matter what the ethanol content is.

Meh, I will just go buy me a few drums of good fuel and keep it in my shop if that is what I have to do. I have already started looking into that myself its a little more expensive to have 3 drums at the house, but you can get good fuel. As soon as my shop is finished I'll be ordering 3 drums and a pump. Will be nice.not having to fill up on the way to the lake too.

Are you saying it will replace E10 ? There are still places to buy ethanol free gas. A little more expensive but I wouldn't want to chance E15 in my SHO. I think TX Rig has a point. The plan is to replace E10 with E 15 over time. And your SHO is not made to run on E15 it will void warranty. To my knowledge no outboard is certified to run E15. Think of it this way for every 10 gallons of E10 refined gas one gallon is ethanol, for E15 1 1/2 gallons. How many Texas jobs is that equal to? Plus Ethanol cant exist without subsidy's paid by taxpayers. Had no idea 10 gal. contained 1 gal. ethanol. Don't even like putting it in my truck. I use premium in my SHO but guessing it has the same percentage of ethanol. What octane is ethanol free gas, anybody know ?  Octane for non ethanol is 87 works GREAT in anything, around lake fork it runs $ 2.49 up to $ 2.79
If it was easy, everyone would do it

Ethanol is a killer for fuel lines and almost all outboard engines. No debate about this. Not just boat engines but lawn equipment, chain saws and more.
Taxpayers and users fund this BS.

You guys talking about getting drums of gasoline, best to check local and state law on above ground storage of motor fuels.
Snowflakes and entitled brats will be the doom of America!
