NO GAS FOR YOU!!!!

Good move on pumping your own boat gas... when I was a teenager I had friend who I worked with at a gas/grocery where we were the pumpers. He filled a boat one day and a spark from somewhere (static?) ignited the fumes and blew his butt forty-feet into the air. He had some nice burns and abrasions from hitting the boat and pavement on the way down. Most don't realize the danger of filling a vessel like that.
