Default Re: 1978 18'

i found that tank on craigslist. measurements put it at about 32 gallons or so. fits perfect width. the guy said it came out of his old sea ray or some kind of bowrider he had. works just fine for mine and is plenty of gas for what i want to do. with a 21 pitch aluminum prop, its turning almost 1 mph for every 100 rpm. tops out at 52.5 with just about any load. its an older, worn out motor but with a fresh rebuilt one would probably be scary. if i can keep my hand out of the throttle, its pretty good on gas.
