    1964 Evinrude pressurized gas tank?

    Thanks for the help. I definitely got an Evinrude connector and it does seem to click on correctly. The gas tank I got has no vent but I did try it with the cap slightly open and all the way closed. I did get a new fuel line with a fuel bulb and pumping the fuel bulb did not keep the engine...

    1964 Evinrude pressurized gas tank?

    Hi I have a 1964 Evinrude sportwin 9.5. I bought a normal plastic 6 gal gas tank for it with what I think is the correct connector piece.

    12ft Valco (V-Hull) with 15hp Yamaha

    Well it looks really good and the 2x2's save some weight over 2x4's too, great job. It looks like you painted the inside of the boat and the wood framing all with the same paint, what kind of paint did you use? Nice pig in that last pic by the way I would love to fish the delta some day.

    12ft Valco (V-Hull) with 15hp Yamaha

    Awesome job on the boat I really like it. What kind of wood did you use for your supports under the decking? It looks smaller than 2x4's.
