So long as the boat is either on land, or moored near enough to parking spot we are able to gain access to the fuel storage tanks and drain out the fuel.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination
Water contaminated fuel, whether it is unleaded or diesel, is usually a serious situation to handle in a vehicle - specifically in current day common-rail engines.
Water or AdBlue in fuel may cause idling difficulties, uneven running, increased smoke and, if not taken care of properly, in some cases ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to clean out than water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can deal with both situations quite simply.
You should know that if the vehicle has been started on the water contamination it will very likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted because the previous one is going to be totally wet and ineffective.

This really was the graveyard shift. It was around 2am and hardly anyone was around. It was quite uneventful until now, and me and John were sitting about looking at several old articles. That was a rare peaceful moment in Northamptonshire. It was indeed so calm that the moment the phone finally rang it made me start! The person told me: "I just finished my evening shift and stupidly poured petrol in a sunflower yellow VW Golf III by mistake". I got him to tell us where exactly the vehicle was situated and we left, getting to him in Overstone only half an hour later. The incorrect fuel was cleaned up and removed from the engine and he said thank you for showing up so promptly. While we were heading back home we noticed two ladies at the side of the street who seemed to have a puncture. Obviously we stopped and helped them change it, much to their delight.
