Ethonol is Hydroscopic so it holds moisture.

Just top it off in the spring, throw in some sea-foam if you are real concerned and change your fuel filter before and after if you are REALLY concerned.

There are pages of discussion about this all over the board.

Thanks for all of the replies, guys. Fortunately, we're down here where we boat all year, so I don't have to worry about storing it for the spring. Guess I'll put some good new gas in it with some octane boost and let 'er rip.

Jason and I were just down there. I guess we should have looked you up when we hit the water.

Jason did call when he was here recently. I wasn't able to get down to the beach because of family commitments, but will definitely get there next time.
