I understand why they wont let you fuel at the dock. Run portable tanks. 6 gallon tanks are easy to handle, run them first, strap them on the deck when they are empty to keep them out of the way, run off the main tank to get back home. You can install a fuel selector valve and switch between the main tank and carry on tanks. Every time you go down to the boat, add 5 gallons to the main tank. BTW, race car gas jugs work far better then the gas jugs with the stupid epa fillers. They even make a battery operated transfer pump for them. The guys I rent my shop from use them to refuel their jet ski rentals. I've transferred fuel from carry on tanks just using a fuel line with a primer bulb attached. Keep the quick disconnect on the line, clip on the carry on tank, get the siphon going with the primer bulb. When using plastic tanks, be careful of static electricity

I removed the epa insert from the tanks. I use the $11.99 battery powered pump to fill the main tank. I got 4 USA made 5 gallon cans from BJs for $17.99 each. I pump them into the tank and toss them in the cuddy. That little cuddy is so loaded with crap, it’s just another bit of crap taking up space. We have a good little system going. Takes about 12-14 minutes to dump 20 gallons in the tank. Last week we went outside to one of the inshore reefs and took 2 extra cans with us. Burned less than I thought we would.
