    Portable Gas Tank Location

    This is just a guess since I'm not familiar with your boat but why not? If the battery location is secured and out of the elements I don't see an issue. Hopefully someone that knows your boat can chime in with a real educated answer.

    Excessive Exhaust Steam? or does this look normal?

    while the motor is running can you hold your hand up, or a piece of paper, in front of the smoke/steam? maybe that way you can tell if it's steam or oil burning.

    2003 Yamaha F115 ECU failure

    I have no idea what's in the ECU but I'm absolutely guessing the problem may be either a cold solder joint or break in a trace on the circuit board. That's why things change when you press on it. Thanks for posting this.

    Making a 16' Aluminum fish boat TOO LIGHT.

    I've had several sized aluminum boats in my life and blame them on my messed up back. They are nice and light for towing and the low maintenance but you get your ass kicked, and back pounded when the wind blows and conditions get rough.
