Just as the public may be forced to buy health insurance, boaters may be forced to purchase fuel  containing 15% ethanol and 85% gasoline (E15), found harmful to marine and car engines that are older than 2001. Fuel generated from corn that contains a level of ethanol higher than E10 is considered unsafe for marine engines. As the demand for renewable energy leads to a push for more corn in fuels that would replace the present, low-ethanol fuels, many boat engines would be handicapped and unable to use these fuels. Will the government turn its back on boating by limiting the availability of low-ethanol fuels in gas stations?
