Default Current state of Seaplane fuel

Things are pretty much the same as always. Barely enough places that
have fuel to make it cross country and pilots carry extra emergency
fuel in cans in the plane, just in case. You also have to call ahead
because not all these places are open that often. If you can use
"marine gas", that is a plus, but those boat docks are not exactly easy
to get into for a Seaplane.


But "marine gas" would contain Ethanol like car gas, right? Would't it
be prohibited in aircraft?
