Not only boat gas tanks, but all of the new EPA complaint fuel tanks are total POS if you know what I mean. The design of these tanks is terrible, they spill fuel, don't work properly. I am always looking for the older plastic tanks at garage sales and the like and I even gather up the caps on...

Just picked up this 87 Alumacraft Trophy 190. Pretty excited about this one! Has a 90 HP Evinrude.

its Vermont 99% chance you can have it and its perfectly legal. You will get a bill of sale from the seller. You may have to seek a title in your state, but the bill of sale will do it. Looked like a pretty nice boat for $150 but I did not look at it all that close. I have no affiliation...
