NO, do not run Traxxas fuel in boats. Even Traxxas themselves do not advise using it in their Nitro-Vee.
AquaCraft Grimracer fuel is easily obtainable from hobby shops now as it's distributed by Great Planes and many shops buy their stock from them.
I'm partial to the McCoy MC-9's but that's me. I do have a card of O'Donnell's that I haven't tried yet but are supposedly better and cheaper than the McCoy's.

our lhs well wait let me rephrase this any hs within 1 to 1 1/2  hour away doesnt stock squat for boats. oh wait i did see a waterproof on off switch cover by pro boat at lantz's hobby in horseheads. that place is so lame i refuse to even walk in there any more so im forced to buy online.

You could run Omega airplane fuel. That has 17% oil, a castor/synthetic blend. I have been running this for a few years now, but I will be trying the Grimracer fuel next.

Check out the helicopter fuels as well. They normally have an 18-21% oil or oil/synthetic mix. I used it for a maiden run of my new boat last month with no problem

That'll work! Most of the time only 2 oz. per gallon is neeed to up the oil content to an acceptable level.
