I use MSR backpacking fuel bottles in the 30oz size, and store a stack of them them in my cockpit locker (with liner intact, not connected to the cabin). These are extremely leak proof and high quality bottles. I then use a small funnel (FloTool Mr. Funnel) that has an integrated filter and water separator to transfer into the outboard. If I do a really long trip, I bring a 2.5 gallon bottle that I refill the small ones from, and store that in the aft cockpit floor.

I am planning on sail from Oceanside to San Clemente island approx 50 miles offshore. Might need to power (Honda 2.3) for hours at a time. Say 30 hrs round trip if no wind. Do you use a transfer pump ? Not sure I want to lift 5 gal can in rough sea. Capt Jim SV Pelican M15 Get Outlook for iOS<https://aka.ms/o0ukef>
