Petrol tank

Post by choppy »

G'day all,

Tank currently in cockpit locker (underfloor) I believe/guess as originally designed. Though ventilated from above to a degree, there is no drainage & it is indirectly open to cabin. Anyone try any other location ? Transom seems most obvious. Any thoughts ?

Hello Choppy

I would not like any weight in the transom. 800's can slow down appreciably if the stern digs in. Can't think of another location though.

Regards
