Question about gas
Is there a difference in gas that I would purchase from a marina on the lake

Gas that I would buy at a gas station and treat with Startron or similar
and
Is there an advantage to using a higher octane
The motor in question is a 2020 Yamaha 70
I look forward to hearing the responses
Thanks and take care

The manufacturer usually states a minimum octane to use, so if you can get 89 or higher real gas then use it. It will not hurt your outboard. The gas on the lake is the same unless it has been treated. Buy real gas if it's available and be done with it.
