Hi looking at putting my plastic fuel tank under my front casting deck and just wondering about running a breather for it as I have a deep cycle up there also in a battery box, just chasing some advice as to where and how to do this .Thanks.

Are you able to put the fuel tank someone else towards the back of the boat? It seems unsafe to have fuel + spark source in the same area under the floor in a boat. Particularly up front where the fuel will be shaken around a lot and fumes will inevitably escape.

JoeT, I think a lot of boats have there batteries and fuel close together in the back of there boats , that's why I was looking at the breather side of things,

just watch it doesnt upset the balance of the boat...i tried mine up front and it was to heavy and ended up moving it back lol......
