You can't!

At least, not unless you carry cans to the boat. You can fuel up at Yarmouth or Lymington in the west, then heading anti-clockwise the next easy fuelling would be Portsmouth or Cowes, I don't recall any quayside petrol at Bembridge.

Nowhere that I Know of.

Maybe able to take cans and fill up at petrol stations in Ventnor or Bembridge.

Better off taking your fuel with you.

Or plan your refuelling point at Yarmouth.

Hope this helps.
