My ship didn't come in, BUT.....

My 77s got two 20 gal saddle tanks. It pulls alot more from one than the other, anybody know why?

[wpearch]

check the hoses might have a restriction in the one

[reelapeelin]

Overboard...I put 40 gal tanks under each seat box (80 gals total), so w/the addition of the fuel-sippin' Honda, I got plenty of range...

To add a 20 gal tank wouldn't take a very large seat-box at all and shouldn't be too heavily weighted on one side(burn it off 1st goin' out)...good luck w/it and let us know what ya do...

[overboard]

Wow, thats a great idea. I am going to change the seat bases anyways, so that seems like the right way to go. Also, that would keep me from having to cut up the floor anymore than I already have to.

hammer are you still looking for a tank for the 78? i think i can buy us several 70 gallon tanks that are new and plastic. around $50 to 75 each what ya think?

This picture shows the installation of a 24 gallon tank installed in the livewell bay on my V. It is a standard 24 Gallon Tempo that fits right in the livewell. As you can see, the fill and vent pipes are above the floor. The addition of this tank gives me a total of 84 gallons of gas. I haven't run the V with both tanks filled so I don't know know how it will effect the balance of the boat.

Thats a good set up, but I think I would have drilled into the floor and brought the hoses in from the side of the live well, as not to trip on them.

There wasn't enough clearance between the top of the tank to the hatch/floor to run the hoses under the floor. In order to do that I would have to relocate the filler pipe out the side of the tank.
