And above all, don't get them confused.

If you try to invite friends around for a sail on a lawnmower you'll look very silly indeed. Likewise if you attwmpt to use your runabout to mow the lawn.

So please, exercise due care when using either object. Using the one in place of the other can result in potential damage to your property and self esteem.

Yep, I'm a boat owner and all of that is in every manual.

Ethanol and alcohol is not good for those motors.

For one thing, they'll eat through your gas hoses that supply your motors.
They also are the cause of rattling valves.
In other words, it sucks.
It will void the warranty of your boat motor as well.
I know this because I am a big believer in reading my manuals.

That's why I only buy our gas from reputable stations.

It's serious business.
If you don't and you buy the cheap gas, you could be out on the lake and your boat could catch fire and/or blow up.
It's no laughing matter at all.

Even if your boat starts fire and you get off your boat, if the water is cold, you have to hope you can make it to shore before you get too cold or drown.

This is where gov't should stay the hell out when it doesn't know the problems it is mandating.

I NEVER burn any ethanol in my mower!

Of course I never burn anything in it (a cordless electric that's also pretty nice'n quiet).

Michelle, I could mow my current front and back lawns (they're not real big) a couple times on one charge.

I think it should easily mow any "normal" size lawn on one charge.

The weirdest thing was I had it sitting outside under a tarp (waiting for a garden shed) all winter, not being charged.

So after several months of that the grass started to grow. I got it out to charge it, but it had held a charge enough for me to just go and mow the lawns! Wasn't expecting that.
