Motor in the boat is an Indmar LS1 (marine version of the LS1 in the C5 Vette).

E10 is a 100% non-issue in a trailered boat. Owners manual is cool with it too. Only time it could be an issue is a boat kept on the water that rarely gets used, so the same fuel sits for long periods of time. Even then it is questionable if it is a real issue.

I bought her off the original owner and it was kept on the water (on a covered lift). No marina on that water so it only saw E10, never had an issue.
