Hi all, does anyone have any experience using portable petrol (gasoline) tanks for the outboards on their cat? The regulations are very strict for a permanent tank mounted below deck, so that would be good to avoid. ?But if you use portable (20 liter or 5 gallon) tanks don¡¯t you have to keep switching them out at sea because you can use 5 gal rather quickly? Perhaps someone has used a Y valve attached to two different portable tanks??
I am building a 12 m Voyager, with two outboards in the 9.9 - 25 hp range. I want to be able to cross oceans, and carrying some extra jerry cans of petrol is fine. My question is about what kind of tank and size to use that will actually fuel the outboard.?
Cheers
Patrick
