Inspection plates
 
I'm looking @ putting an in deck inspection plate over the fuel tank's sending unit .I would prefer a flush mount/water tight plate if at all possible. Any recommandations/suggestions on brand/type would be greatly appreciated.

Does'nt anyone have an inspection plate in their deck ?

I assume you looked at Bomar?

I have one for the bilge, but I am not sure how a plastic one would be underfoot. The aluminum ones are probably to big and deep vertically.

I don't know about the other models, but the 20 foot console models have very modest clearance from tank to deck. And I didn't think pulling up the entire panel was that hard?

It would seem that most of us would re-engineer our crappy designs to SC quality.

You can lift out your deck plate and cut your opening & config it for a flush mount. I have found the Armstrong brand are the best.
I have 2 of these in my deck. Also the ones used in my Hermco Bracket.
