Sounds good. Note that they sell both Command Link tachs and regular digital tachs. The Command Link setup is likely more expensive, but it will let you add a GPS connection in the future if desired. If you care about fine control of trolling speeds, I know the Command Link tach lets you do that, not sure about the other one.

I have a separate fuel-water separator, but only because it came with my boat. I don't know if I'd bother installing it again myself. Despite the great fuel economy, gas just doesn't hang around that long in the portable tanks, and the F70's under-cowling fuel filter is readily accessible and includes an alarm for water. You can see the location my previous owner used for the separator in one of the pics on my personal page. Note that the regs say that you can't use a clear plastic fuel bowl in an enclosed location.
