To find fuel for the boat in Resident Evil 4 Remake, you’ll need to make your way to the western end of the Fish Farm, the area north of the Quarry. Starting from the wooden walkway near the boat’s small pier, you’ll need to climb up the nearby scaffolding and enter the mineshaft tunnel entrance on the second level.

After exiting the small tunnel, you’ll find yourself at the starting point of the Fish Farm. Fall through the hole on the right into the shallow water and wade across the muddy swamp to encounter your first enemy, a bull-headed brute. If you don’t have enough ammunition with your firearms to take him out, consider using stealthier tactics to defeat this formidable foe.

However, do note that the entire area is filled with slow-moving zombies guarding the pathways. Using flash grenades to quickly get past hostiles without confrontation might be a safe strategy. Watch out for the tripwire trap near the easternmost area of the Fish Farm.

Once you’ve reached the eastern dead end of the Fish Farm, you will find a rickety cabin, according to gameplay by YouTuber Trophy Tom. The wooden door will be locked, so you’ll need to use brute force and kick open the entryway. If enemies are still pursuing you, use the doorway as a means to stifle their access, preventing them from overwhelming you. The site is safe for you to loot, investigate the back portion of the interior to find a red canister of boat fuel in Resident Evil 4 Remake.
