bring it with you.All you could find on the water is 87 oct.There is an airport in page you could probably get av gas there.
I use to bring some of my own gas for my jet boat and some oct booster when i went.

If you are passing through Flagstaff, the airport here is easy. IF interested tell me and I will post some directions and a phone # to have them open the gate for you. Pull the boat right up to a self serve pump.

When are you going? We get on house boat 6-19. We go thru St George and Kanab to Page. Do you think one of those places will have 100 or AV gas. :p

I've never seen 100 octane in Page or Kanab. Your probably going to have to bring it with you, as everyone has said.
The people who run the FBO in Page can be a little funny about some things, so I would call ahead and find out if they will pump fuel into cans or the boat.
There is also fuel at the airport in Kanab, it's right off the highway between Freedonia and Kanab.
Not only is the gas on the water 87 octane, it's crap, and has lots of water in it as well. :mad:

Do you guys run straight AV gas in your motors??? I use to run race gas in my car all the time but usually stuck to 100 octane unleaded or sunoco leaded 108 octane. Never messed with the AV gas. From what I hear that AV gas has a LOT of lead in it.

Sleek, thanks for all the good info. The great thing about our House boat is they fill the toy tank (200 gal)with 91 since it's dry docked. The boat will run ok with the 91 at a lower boost but my buddy wants to get 100LL to get the week started and go to 91. I know that Halls Crossing sells 91 octane but that's way up the lake. Thanks again Sleek.... boxed
