Fuel Questions

Call the marina team for current fuel prices and fuel dock hours.

Ethanol-free fuel at the Peninsula Marina fuel dock

The fuel dock at Peninsula Marina pumps ethanol-free gasoline, every gallon of it, treated with Primrose Fuel Additives. The fuel is covered against water degradation for twelve months. Bring the boat alongside, tie off and fill up before you head out on Barren River Lake, then grab ice and drinks from the store a few steps away.

Why ethanol free gasoline suits boats

Ethanol free gasoline is a common choice for boat owners because boats sit between trips, and their tanks breathe the damp air over the lake. Fuel blended with ethanol can pick up moisture over time. Fuel without it avoids much of that and is gentler on older fuel lines and seals.

Fuel without ethanol for every kind of boat

Ethanol free gas for boats works for runabouts, pontoons, fishing boats and cruisers, and personal watercraft use it too. Check your engine manual for the fuel your engine needs before you fill up.

Marine fuel close to your slip

Having marine fuel at the marina saves a run across the lake to fill up. You can fuel at the start of the day and come back to the same dock in the evening.

Boat gas and fueling habits worth keeping

Top up before a long outing instead of halfway through it. Keep the tank fairly full if the boat will sit for a while. After filling a boat that has a gasoline inboard, run the blower before you start the engine. And at the end of the season, ask the team how to time your final fill before the boat rests for winter.

Where to find boat fuel on this end of the lake

For boat fuel near the dam, the Peninsula Marina fuel dock is two miles from it, near Glasgow. The fuel dock keeps the marina’s seasonal hours, from mid April to mid October, and the contact page lists every 2026 time.

Fuel prices

Fuel prices change, so call 270-646-2223 for today’s price. The team can also answer questions about fueling at the dock.

Safety while you fill up

Shut down the engine and ask passengers to step onto the dock. Shut hatches and doors so vapor has nowhere to settle below deck. Keep the nozzle against the fill opening, do not overfill, and wipe up any spills before starting again. If anything seems wrong, such as a fuel smell that does not clear, tell the staff before you leave the dock.

Fuel close to the slips

The fuel dock sits close to the slips, so filling up before a day out takes only a few minutes. While the tank fills, someone in your group can pick up ice and drinks from the store nearby.

Fuel at the start and end of the season

In spring, a fresh fill helps the engine after a winter rest. Come fall, a tank kept mostly full over the winter leaves little room for damp air to condense. Ask the team about timing before your last trip of the year.

If you run low on the lake

If you notice the gauge dropping faster than expected, head back toward the marina early rather than pushing on. Calm water, a steady speed and fewer passengers all help a tank go further. Call the marina if you need advice on the way back.

A little planning at the pump goes a long way. Fill at the start of the day, keep an eye on the gauge, and the lake is yours until sunset.

Reading the label on the pump

Every pump at the dock is marked with the fuel it dispenses. Take a second to read the label before you lift the nozzle, and match it to what your engine manual calls for. If anything on the pump is unclear, ask the staff before you start.
