Interesting gas can

[Big Shasta]

Might work great for in water refueling with a hose on the end of that spout. All I can think of is a leak at that hinge though.

damn that awesome.....like when someone finally figured out one day to move the concrete chute to the OTHER end of the cement truck.....

a $44 gas can is a bit extreme.....

I have 2 of these for my lawnmower and blended fuel tools. They are as awesome as they look. I figure eventually I'll offset the cost of them with the gallon of fuel I spill every time I used the damn "safety" cans.

Wow I just ordered 5 gal and 2.2 gal. Hope they work as good as they look. I have been spilling gas left and right with no spill nozzles Damm EPA mandated . I will report back when I get them.

Skip the fancy gas cans and use a shaker siphon.

These allow you to just set the can higher than the tank you are trying to fill and once the siphon starts the flow, the can empties into the tank. I dump multiple cans of gas into my boat each weekend with these. Set the can on the sundeck, start a siphon and crack my first beer as it flows into my boat.

It sounds like you have a good system. I fuel boat at marina these cans will be for all other toys.

Good point. Our marina is $6/Gallon. I think I can get creative for that premium price.

Fueling sleds in my garage is another story.

Exactly! I save $ in other areas to off set higher pump price at marina. I laugh at people worried about gas price do the math!! What would they pay for a gallon of name brand coffee!beer!etc. I like that the nozzle shuts off. My weekends are full of fiends and family boating all day eating and fire at nite. No time it run to fill can and then fill boat.
