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]

I think the book on my 89 23WA Seacraft said it had a 115 gal fuel tank, seems accurate as I have actually put in 110 gal at the pump after I intentualy(sp?) sucked it dry w/female fitting on the fuel line. The boat was a little cocked on the tralier.
