$900 for the top including the eisenglass and drop curtains? That sounds great!! Wish he was on the east coast......

Looks great!! Just curious.........what did it cost???

Glad to hear you got it...........

Keep at it.......you'll get it. Just don't loose your temper like I usually do...:) Sounds like you are going at it somewhat like I did. Good luck and let me know how you make out! If your old hose is that strong, maybe you can attach the new one to the end of the old one and use it as snake...

It was about 5 yrs ago so I don't remember exactly how I did it. Like I said the old hose broke apart and cam out in pcs. I have an access plate on the starboard side right by the fish box. I was able to get my arm in there far enough to do the job but I do rember being quite bloddy by the time...

Replacing the fuel fill hose was a real PITA!! You can try to connect the new hose to the old at the tank and use the old hose as a snake. I tried this but my old hose was so dry rotted it fell apart. It's not an easy job........good luck!!

What the He!! is this?

Thanks, I appreciate the guidance.

Thanks, I assume I will only need a quart.......do they sell quarts? Also, I will adhere the strips to the tank before coating..........right?

Is this a good choice? http://www.grainger.com/Grainger/RUSTOL ... ting-3XH23

Got ya.........that makes sense. What type of epoxy coating do you recommend?

I am installing a new tank. Think it would be OK to install in the boat first and then just have the tank sit on the strips?

Thanks Brian. So you installed the srtips on the tank first? How did you know where to put them? Tony

I am in the process of installing a new fuel tank. When installing the rubber strips, what is used to hold them in place? Is silicone a good adhesive? Should they be installed on the supports on the hull first and then the tank just placed on top of them? Thanks, any tips would be appreciated.

I decided to replace.........dropped the tank off with Phil at Alloy Metals in Farmingdale last week, he already called and said the new one is ready. Will probably pick it up this w/e..........too cold to play under the covers right now!!

I had an IL6 in an overnighter.......I would defintely say something is wrong if your only hitting 3300RPM's w/ a 17" prop. That boat should do alot better than that. I am hitting 4400 turning a 17" prop in my 24' Offshore.

If you are going to trailer I would go with the Offshore, If you are going to get a slip for the season go for the Sailfish. Just my opinion....

Brought my tank down for Phil to look at today........he didn't think it looked too bad but I decided to go with a new one anyway. I would definitely recommend him even though I don't have my new tank yet. Seems like a honest guy..........wasn't looking to take my money too easily!! Nice to...

Removed the tank this morning......found some pitting under the neopreme.......looks like a replacement(?).

Thanks, plan on removing it today. was going to clean and inspect, but if it's the orig I am going to replace. Thanks...........
