well I was told it's a 77 gallon tank by the old owner, but we put 22 gallons in it and the gauge read 1/2 a tank. Maybe its a 40 to 60 gallon?
anyways..... are you sitting down?
I pumped about 20 gallons of water out of the tank till I hit pure gas.
I have no idea how that much water got inside the tank, but the tank hatch is not sealed (big hatch under the console) and neither is the access hatch. I think it rained so hard for so long that the entire boat filled with water and the tank was sumeraged and it came in from everywhere.
but I did get the water out, but now I have debris clogging up the screen inside the tank.
The springs on the trailer are rusted but seem to be ok.
I am going to replace all 4 sets of bearings tomorrow.
I also have to replace one of the deck boards and several hinges and bolts due to rust, one of the boards wasn't bolted down and floated up on top of the board next to it and when i pulled her out of the water the bottom board snaped in half.
B. O. A. T.
Bet. On. Another. Thousand.
