Have heard not great for outboards, anyone more knowledgeable have any comments on this aspect?
If true bad for Katherine fishos and those rom Darwin fihing the Roper who like to fill up on cheaper fuel at Katherine plus less weight to haul for 1st 300km

I've run Opal in my Yammie (60 and 80 4 strokes) and didn't notice any difference. My old xr6 ute wasn't so keen on the Opal, nothing dramatic just a bit gutless on it. I would still use regular unleaded whenever possible though.

There's no real evidence that it is bad for any engine, I'm glad they're rolling it out
