Default Gas tanks?

I'm looking for a low profile tank for my Davette. I don't like the IV bag setup that it has now. Does anyone have pics of the sullivin deep vee tank? I think that it might do the the trick as long as it doesn't have a tall fill neck like the whh has.

Have you tryed www.hobbypeople.net they may have some thing you need. All you have to do is type in fuel tanks and there are pages of them. Just find what you looking for. Maybe they have it maybe they don't just check them out.

Im assuming you have 5" stringers in your boat, if so you want tank #S391 from Sullivan, its a 180oz. tank measuring 2.7" x 4.8" x 4.5" I use them in my boats and the are awesome!

Heres the link scroll down a bit you will find it. 3rd tank from the bottom of the page.

Thanks WB, thats what I was looking for. I think I'm going to go the 390 though because I have a fill cap mounted on the deck and I won't be able to get the tank once it's mounted.

Sounds good, the reason I chose 391 is the cap is on top, not a plug coming out the side, less chance for me and my cat to spring a leak! I have a aluminum cap that is fully plumbed and also use a fual dot placed on my hull to fill it from, the dot has a somewhat scale appearance.

Glad the link helped and good luck.
