We cannot get e free gas here in NJ. (None that I know of at any rate) But I have to be honest. My 93 (Coffin cowl) Merc 200 runs fine on E10. I hate that I have to put it in her, but really what are my choices.... Sail or some kind of inboard diesel boat? I think it's time for the engine makers to step up to the plate and make engines that can handle E15. I mean, really... if you think about it.... cars run on E15 with no restrictions on the warrantee, so why not boat engines? Ya, I know... it corrodes aluminum..... so why not sleeve the cylinders with steel and coat the passageways with chrome? Any place that the $hit Ethanol can get to. There's no good reason it can't be done. Hell, make the entire engine out of Titanium and it will last forever.... it should only cost about 100K and everyone knows that boaters have unlimited amounts of money so that's no big deal... right?
