Default Installing A Below Deck Fuel Tank

Since almost all bilges have at least an electrical bilge pump, I
guess almost all bilges must be ventilated then, correct?

Since you bought a Moeller tank


That was the OP. I'm not the OP.

Look at this web site http://newboatbuilders.com/pages/fuel.html for

mounted such that it won't move as well.


Okay, good. Thanks,

Rick
