Permanent gas tank filler port location

[Nandy]

I want to install a permanent tank in my cobia. This is a tank from that other boat I bought. Anyway, I don't want to make a hole in the cobia hull as I'm selling that boat next year and I want to keep that tank. Is there a prebuilt adapter that I could use to just screw the gas filler in instead of making a hole? I can see how this is not a common thing but I want to see if there something made for this before I make my own.
Thanks!

The problem is that the filler port is designed so that any gas spilled goes overboard and not inside the boat. So I don't think you have any option but to put a hole in the gunwale to install a permanent tank.

I have to tend to agree with you. I have seen a few that would not really do what you state but I am sure these has been done by someone that did not have spills in mind. I have a mount in mind that would let me do what I want but I will have to make it myself and I was trying to avoid that if there was an already made solution.... Well, one more thing for my list...
