Default 84 fuel tank?

Should the fuel tank from an 84 cuddy cabin be able to fit in an 84 center console? I've got an idear in my mind and it may rest on this.

Ferm...this is a GUESS, but I would think it will, because the stringers are the same distance apart...if the floor is the same height, then I'd think yer good to go :) ...

I concur with Master REEL, noting that I think the console version had the tank in the console?

The one I'm lookin at has the tank under the console I think from looking at the pics. The fuel fill is in the gunnel, not the console.

Here it is.

Inconclusive was my search. In 78' they were under the console. Not sure on later models, but I think they stayed in the console, but that really is just a slightly educated guess. I've got 2 friends w/ newer CC's but can't get them on the phone. We can answer this for certain in the AM

Slot...I think we're gonna find the tank was never "IN" the console, but "UNDER" the console, IN the floor ... I think there has been a confusion in terms on this one ;) ...


WHOA!! ... just found Blue Lunch's Gallery...'74 CC he did beautiful full resto-job ... clearly shows new fuel-tank sittin' ON the deck...aw heck...here ya go...

Says "installed" and that's right where the console goes...so there goes the ''confusion in terms'' theory ;) ...

Guys I can tell you with great knowledge that my 84 Cneter console has the tank in the floor under the console and the fill is on the starboard gunnel. It is also of the capicity of 60 gallons.

In this photo you can see a gray line in the floor from the console to the cooler seat. That is one side of the floor hatch that covers it.
