I could've sworn I posted it here on this thread and then clicked back to make sure the photobucket link worked since they are now holding everyone's photos for ransom.

I'll try again.

The the original poster.
I had a tank made by a marine fuel tank fabricator for my 1983 15' Center Console. Custom to my specs to have it as big as possible and still fit under the seat. It held 28 gallons which was good for a season's use with a Honda 50 4 stroke.

Here is a link to the pb album with some pictures of the tank.

On one of the pictures you can see I took the top port for the fuel line and ran it down into the tunnel to keep it off the deck.

Fuel tanks should be USCG certified, I would suggest you not build your own tank.
