BarnacleGirl,
Can't imagine someone installing tanks w/o senders can you see the entire top of any one of the tanks? Coast guard regs require that the sender and hose connections be accessable for inspection,there should have been an inspection plate installed over the senders and hose connections if there is such a plate and no sender you can use a flashlight and a mirror to see the rest of the tank and check for senders.
d.h.

hey all - an update for ya - pulled up all panels & hatches this weekend and discovered that I actually DO have fuel senders - they just aren't hooked up to anything. they also look to be in pretty bad shape, but you were all right - there they were! I'll probably have to replace them and rig them up - might still go with the whole system FellowShip was suggesting instead. but thanks for all the tips!
