Check it out. I replaced the original fuel tank on my '72 Seafari, listed as a 47 gallon tank, yet when I went to have it duplicated exactly, the result would have been 26.8 gallons by measurement. The original tank had no tag indicating capacity.
So I had built the the biggest I could fit in the tank well, which turned out to be 43 gallons. The new tank extended all the way back to the transom [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
