I'm thinking of painting the fuel fill plate green, to match the

Perhaps it might be better if you installed a small deck light near
the fittings for this type of situation.

Not to worry and welcome to the club.

I could tell you stories... :)


As a charter member of the occasionally dumb club, I can confidently say

My father in law had his sailboat in an airline fly and rent program. Had
an Atomic 4 gas motor and the renters filled the water tank with gasoline.
Was a stainless tank, so was able to be cleaned, but cost renters big bucks.
