Bleeding heart states? I voted for Trump.

Other than CA, IL and maybe NY and NJ, looks to be very available in coastline marinas. Where you would find "big" boats. You said half the country.....

Another reason not to live in one of the bleeding heart states.....

your still not looking close enough. Zoom in on the coast and the great lakes.
Click on what you think is a marina. If it doesn't say marina, it isn't. Which includes the entire west coast, east coast to Virginia and texas. Now buzz around the great lakes. Also no one is traveling 50 miles for fuel.

Bleeding heart states? I voted for Trump.

If you are in one of those states you are very outnumbered....

Unfortunately, the big cities overpower the rest of the state for obvious reason.
Take Maryland for example, outside of Baltimore, pretty good mix of politics.
Southern Il is farm country. Hell, there are still good sized farms in NJ. Newark is a disaster. Detroit is a disaster. Baltimore? Good Luck. I fear Chicago is headed the same direction. What do they all have in common? I am not referring to race.....

I voted for Trump. I would have voted for anyone other than Clinton.

I hate Chicago, it starves IL for money. It will never die though.

Found plenty on the Great Lakes. Except IL. What are the gaps from VA-TX?

Surprised to find a few in WA state too.

I've used only E-10 since 2011 -

first in a 2006 F90, then in my F225TXRD.

So far I have had just one problem;

the F90 had been rigged with a "Mercury OEM" fuel bulb/hose -

a strange silver colored tubing with a clear inner liner.

After a few months of exposure to E-10, the plastic liner turned into crumbly brown chips,

and some semi-soluble schmutz that made it to the injector baskets.

Reminds me of my buddy at work who retired a couple years ago.

He sneaks down to the marina at night, under the cover of darkness, to fuel his boat with about 7 five gallon cans. His wife drives the golfcart.....

Marina doesn't allow fueling? LOL definitely something I would do, too....

Luckily my boat is docked behind the house, nobody's business but mine.

I have 3 six gallon and 3 five gallon Rubbermaid jugs......

Thought that might resonate a little, after all, you said you were pathologically frugal.....
