I have been making 100+ mile trips also and carried extra 5 gals for "oh crap". Luckily I haven't come close to needing it with my four stroke. I have however considered adding a 3 way fuel valve with a plug/jack connection to a portable 6 gal tank. That would allow me to carry a portable tank and just plug it in and turn the valve to use it. No trying to pour it into the gunnel fill.
And it does not take away permanent space on the boat.
And you don't have to worry about the vent and fill.
