I just purchased a 1993 16SL, It was neglected so I’m going through everything. The PO replaced the gas tank and installed a Moeller 12 gallon poly tank. This left a large void in the gas tank cavity , I pumped out 4 gallons of nasty water. I will be devising a plan to seal up the gas tank cavity from water intrusion . The original drainage plan for these boats is nuts. After I seal up all the points where water enters and supposedly exits the cavity I may install a second bilge pump and plumb it into the hose I have for the ski locker bilge pump.
