Taht's always the problem I'[ve had with my v huls. the tank cap is in front of the drivers windshield, and so is the vent. fueling them is a pain because the pump[ is pumping then if not careful to shut the pump down before the filler neck is full, the pump handle makes a smard *click!* as the gasolinee comes puking back out of the top. OK so now it's full, but every jossle and gas comes dribbling out of the tank vent. i got to the point where I'd wash it as fast as I could with windshield washer and a wet cloth, but eventually I gave up trying to get rid of the stain every time I slopped gas on the hull. . But I'll detail them when I moth ball them for the winter. Bon-ami doesnt't do bad but really dulls the finish, so It'll get a good scrubbing then a wax job, and I doubt it will look good -as- new, but it'll be better'n what it was. yeah the tanks were pretty full and the rocking of the boat spilled some out the overflow. looks like hell but i hope the FSR takes it off... |

Sounds like a plan, Bob, they should know what they're talking about. Yes please keep us informed. Always looking for better boat products. |
