GL: Ethanol in fuel

[Keith]

"Frankly, I would be very worried if my boat had fiberglass
tanks.  For gas or diesel.  We haven't seen the end of the re-formulations 
yet."

You ain't see nothing yet. A couple of lobbying groups (ethanol supporters) 
are trying to get ethanol into diesel. Good news: environmentally 
"friendly". Bad news... it makes it a class 1 flammable material, just like 
gasoline. So much for diesel safety, not to mention the problems with all of 
your fuel system... hoses, injectors, etc. That's a good one to stay alert 
on and fight. As usual, I always suggest you send a tiny, tiny bit of your 
boating budget to be a member of Boat/US, since it's the only political 
lobby we have. They will help us all out in the long run, and keep you 
informed in the meantime. http://www.boatus.com/
