Default Re: Fuel Tank replacement

That’s the way most of the guys have installed their tanks with the strips on the bottom of the tank to elevate it a little and using the 5200. I also added two L shape brackets in the front and back to insure no sliding around. As for the location of the hose I don’t think that I would move it back any farther than where it already is. Remember “Variable Deadrise” that means the stringers have less height in the back of the boat then in the bow of the boat. If you move the hose back you could have a clearance problem from the top of the hose connection to the bottom of the deck plate. You have the air escape hose that would keep things ok no matter where the hose connections to the tank.
