Used the 30 gal on wheels, and 6 ea 5 gallon cans. Our driveway ends in the water, and would pull truck down to match dock height and unload. The 30 gal had some sort of crank/siphon, pretty easy, used the shake hose on the 5's. I convinced myself that was the smart thing to do, save $.50/gallon buying my fuel on shore. I did that exactly 3 weekends. Even saving $30 each weekend wasn't worth the risk of a rolling explosion, as well as the time. Had to fill them up, drive them up, unload the containers to the dock, then watch closely as each was used to fill boat and jet skis. Didn't spill a drop, but man, so much easier to float them up, wander into the store, visit a little, hand the gas boy a tip, then motor away. The biggest factor in moving away from the on shore buy was hauling the gas. The threat of a fireball kept me on edge the entire ride.
