    So i feel stupid now. I got the tank out and look alll over no cracks. Start looking at the pumps for the tank and come to find out the pump to empty the tank has a cracked fitting on its exit side. So all that time wasted to find out it could've been fixed without removing the tank. I was suprised however to find out that the tank isnt held down by anything, itjust kinda sits in the bottom of the boat.

        You can probably get more capacity out of sac if you replaced that tank. You'd loose the guage but, most of the time I'm waiting for the tank to overflow out the side more so that looking at the guage.

          As far as usage of the fuel in the tank:

          Beer bottles with a strip of towel in it hanging out the end.

          On second thought, putting it in a car would be the best option.
