That is too much. Any automotive store should carry it. Rick.

Too expensive. $2/ft. You don't need "Marine" fuel hose, just alcohol-resistant. Here's some you can order, but try other auto parts stores.

I bought 25' from local NAPA store for less than $15.00 ... it was #H177, just about to pitch the reel. BTW, the per ft price was high, 25' price very inexpensive.

They have two grades of fuel hose. Sounds like they were quoting you the higher priced hose suitable for fuel injection cars which operate at much higher pressure than outboards do. The low pressure stuff will work for you---unless you have a fuel injection system.

Any fuel hose sold these days should be ethanol resistant unless it was made in some fourth world jungle. Ethanol has been a fact of life for a long time now.
