Default ethanol free gas in NJ?

I think there may be ethanol free at Kettle Creek. Don't know the name of the place. Right at Shore Acres. Any others around? Like in Manasquan River.

I have seen that link and It is not accurate for NJ. I know there is 100 Octane ethanol free at Shore Acres. It's not listed. Hard to believe that in all of the Barnegat bay and Manasquan River there are no more ethanol free stations. I guess this means we are all running 10% Ethanol in our boats here. I just bought a boat from Lake Ontario and they run mostly ethanol free up there in NY.

Drum Point Marina has the 100 octane. They sell Valvetect fuel but I dont know if it is the E-free blend or not?

Go to any small airport and get some aviation fuel no ethanol there.

If you have say 15 gal. of a 60 gal tank with Ethanol gas. You pull up to a gas dock with Non Ethanol gas. Can you fill up? Without problems?

This was discussed in the other recent thread about full or empty tanks for winter.
Many people say this is no issue, but plenty of experts have said this is NOT recommended.

I don't have to worry about mixing my gas with non-ethanol. By me the only non-eth is 100 octane and $6 a gallon! too pricy for me.
