[QUOTE="Flat Bottom, post: 268015, member: 4594"] Finally got an at least temporarily permanent fuel tank, 9 gallon. It should work better than the 6, i would love to have a bigger one, however that just means i'll be dumping a ton more money worth of fuel into the thing haha... I figure any kind of long trip planned i'll put an extra 5 gallon can of gas in, that way it will be like a reserve tank, hopefully enough to get me back to the dock. Plus I will likely always have the kicker on there, and that thing pushes the boat nicely and sips fuel in comparison to the 140hp suzuki. I've had alot of fun with the boat so far, only had it out twice but plan to do a little bass fishing on Thursday. I really like the boat being open, I may end up building some permanent compartments primarily around the fuel and battery near the stern, but for now everything is opened and exposed, and besides not looking as nice and professional it is actually kind of the look I am going for so... Anyways here are a couple more pics... Still have to get some siding put on the inside and fix up the seats a little bit. What do you all think so far? [/QUOTE]
