I used to keep a desiccant stick in my snowmobile fuel tanks and once a year take them out and slowly oven dry them and put them right back in.
They were a perforated semi clear (translucent) plastic tube with a gray fabric bag riveted into the tube, on a long nylon white 1/8" rope.
Do these exist here to remove water from our fuel tanks?
In am beginning the search for them, they worked wonders for me in the past. I am not exactly sure how I would install them if at all, but maybe an inline desiccant would work?

What do you all think?

I didn't even know that stuff worked when submerged in fuel!

I have a 1lb bag of desiccant. Only use I could think of for it was a nice beanbag chair in the center console of the truck for my gun.

Might have to see what I can throw together to try it in the tank on the boat.
