Should I just add replacing all hoses to my list of repairs? The fill hose looks like a real pain to replace, however, I do smell a slight odor of fuel in the bilge.

The forward bait tank looks like a real pain, the hoses run under the deck for 15 feet and I can feel the hose connections through one of the deck access plates but no way can I see them. I guess being a good scout I should also replace all the lines aft too huh

The life expectancy of a hose is about 10 years. Those exposed to the sun, considerly less. The life expectancy of a rubber fuel hose is generally less
