Does anybody know if this will effect the balance if I run my NH with the tank on the side like this?

i would say it will affect the stability and speed due to change in balance the starboard is heavier than the portside, the boat has tendency to bear right, and u'll notice it's easy to turn right than left, it can be corrected by putting counter wt. on the other side but ur boat will be more heavier and cause to run slow, or u can conpensate it by adjusting ur rudder but running boat with rudder not straight will cause drag and it will slow ur boat again,,just my 2cents....

It's not mine, speaking of cleaning... Would it be safe to use a degreaser in it?

here's my set-up with 4 oz fuel tank, running time 12-15 min,,and my cleaning stuff with orange flavor:D:D:D,,,i used to spray it before running so that oil will not stick and the water that enters the boat will clean itself, u'll be surprise[:-],after run wipe it, very easy to clean....but i think in ur boat u need to sand paper the pipe, it's a stain already.

Is it normal for boats to get oil all over the place? where dose it all come out? After about 5 runs I clean the boat beacuse it is so messy & it looks sloppy.
