Fuel tank install and deck paint
I'm going to let my mechanic decide how he wants to secure it he's done plenty. Check out the Rustoleum marine paint (topside) around $17 a quart on Amazon. It's very inexpensive compared to other deck/topside type paints. Went on super smooth and dried incredibly fast. One quart was plenty with lots left over for second coat, I really like this paint! I used Battleship grey it matched what I last painted it with.

On the issue of the drains, one thing I haven't heard anyone suggest/talk about. Go to ACE or HD or Wal-Mart or just about any hardware store and buy a set of grain strainers (the kind that fit into your sink drain at home) and put one in each of your drains. They have a large mesh screen and are perfect for catching fish scales, guts, twigs, and just about anything that would normally get caught in your drains. When they get clogged just pull them out and tap them upside down to get rid of the debris. Cheap fix to an old problem. THey look like this: https://www.walmart.com/ip/Peerless-...&wl13=&veh=sem
