I don't see any drips, runs or errors but that white peg board???

Ugly! What's with that?

What, you never heard of "cleaning up"?

If you have a proper installation, it will be easily possible to
minimize & contain any spilled fuel.


... Also, all diesel tanks must have a vent and there
is a smell emanating from the vent


which is outside the boat.

... not to mention very
small leaks on the plumbing going to and from the injectors.


It is fully possible to have a system that does not leak. In some cases
where the injector system has a linkage that slightly weeps a bit of
fuel, it is also fully possible to clean it up regularly.



Diesel fuel is dirty and smelly and boats that contain
diesel engines smell like diesel and that's a fact.


Ours doesn't. None of our friends boats do either. So it is not a fact.

The *only* reason for a boat to smell like diesel is sloppiness.... a
sloppy installation that leaks, or or sloppy maintenance, or lack of
cleanliness.

Your expertise includes all three.
