 gas tank install I have attached a pick of my boat as it was being built. This pic shows the frame work with out the welded in floor . I want to place the fuel tank just past the longitudinal braces in the bow of the boat. Is it wise to drill through the lateral brace ( the one the longitudinal braces are welded to) to run the fuel line through?

Re: gas tank install It shouldn't be a problem, but I wouldn't run a hose. I would use stainless tubing and be done with it. You will catch hell changing out the hose. Well unless you have gutters.

Re: gas tank install It wouldnt hurt anything, but would be hard to get to if something happened to the line. I would run half pipe down the side to run your hoses though.

Re: gas tank install [youtube][/youtube]I like the stainless idea, do you use compression fittings to transition to the regular gas line?
