Hello; Love this forum, and I've been reading it for a while. I own a 24'
Bayliner which has a 50 gallon gas tank in the stern engine area. I wonder - can additional fuel be towed on a large inflatable, like a Zodiac? Adding larger fuel tanks is not a good idea - it diminishes performance. But I wonder if with a raft - you could tow along a large fuel supply? Say another 300 gallons or so? Currently, my boat is great for LI Sound and the CT River, etc. but 50 gallons doesn't go all that far. I like to have at least 20 gallons in reserve so I go out using around 15, plan on using 15 to return, and always have the 20 in the tank for safety - but 15 gallons 'out' doesn't go very far. So I'm wondering about methods to increase fuel capacity. Thanks. John. |
