Most wakeboats have metal tanks.
You also have problems with injectors, fittings, some lines and joints, with higher concentrations of alcohols unless the engine was designed for them. Normally a 5% mixture won't hurt. But there is no benefit from it.

The Skiers Choice or Centurion Wakeboats do not have metal tanks. I really doubt that Mastercraft, Malibu, or Nautiques have metal tanks.
