As far as I know Quarter Bridge filling station in Douglas sells SUL. They also sell it at the filling station in Ramsey on the way up to the mountain (79.9p a litre, normal unleaded is 77.9p a litre)

JamesS,

i contacted Shell about Optimax in the IoM, and received the following reply...

"Thank you for taking the time to contact Shell UK.
Unfortunately Shell Optimax is not available on the Isle Of Man. I have
tried several avenues in an attempt to obtain a supply to be delivered
directly to the Isle Of Man for your event. The product would cost double
the pump price if it were to be delivered in twenty five litre drums, as we
don't currently supply it this way, additional costs would include the
transportation of the product. Although it is possible to arrange for
Optimax to be drummed it is an extremely difficult and costly exercise.
Unfortunately we are unable to help with your request on this occasion, I am
sorry to send such a disappointing reply
Regards"

Nice of them to take the time and trouble to investigate

...so stock-up before the ferry (but don't overfill or use cans, other wise you won't be allowed onboard!).
