    Auxiliary fuel tanks above deck

    I am looking around at some fuel tank options. I asked the question a couple days ago somewhere else about changing out the stock fuel tank in certain model boats and the answer I got was essentially what they come with is all you can do.

    Utility/Fishing boat ideas?

A little background - I've pretty much grown up on the water, mostly Lake of the Woods and Lake Erie. I've been going up to Lake of the Woods all my life and just got back...
