Be sure to replace the gasket with one for fuel. Then you are golden. If that is your intention.

I don't get the love for them.
I have one of the OD ones with the big opening, it's neat I guess, but it's still just a plastic fuel can. |

For actual use, these are the best ones I've found, and with fuel prices flying it's good to have something that is no spill and easy to use. Sucks they are round though, makes storing them annoying.  |

15 gallons is about the limit I can pickup and move around easily without a dolly. Get a couple 2 inch of their siphon pumps for $15 and you can have aux fuel for offshore fishing.

I think the limit on small portable containers is something like 8 gallons. |

My portable poly boat tanks hold 12 gallons and there are 18 gallon versions available. fuel tank I'm not sure of regulations when operating outside of commercial use, but we have to comply with OSHA standards, and the DOT standards meet or exceed them so it's a good way for us to gauge what we can and can't do with work trucks. It looks like for casual use, bulk tanks being transported are limited to 119 gallons or less, after that you need hazmat or some other type of permit. You could do it for your boat, I would probably get a ticket with DOT numbers. |

If you need a heavy duty water jug or an actual fuel jug I strongly suggest getting the 5 gallon racing style fuel containers. They are made for fuel and are easy to move around and take up less room. Make sure you get the nozzle for the tanks. Some sellers don't have the nozzle attachment included.
