To bad tanks aren't bigger else I would've said just leave old fuel in there & top it up with fresh fuel to top up the octane level.
Fuel is still good even after 6 months but loses it's octane level so it dosn't fire as well in the pistons.
Just pour old fuel into the car done that many a time
I have personally used 5 month old petrol before w/o any problems, but I had topped up the tank and stored it in my garage.
Having said this. I do not go out wide but stay close to shore in nicely protected waters where the problems with engine trouble (due to bad fuel) would be fairly limited.
to get rid of the old fuel, maybe use it for lawn mower/whipper snipper and whatever other small petrol engine tools you have
