    Great video! I have the same problem with my fuel tank. Could you talk me through what youve down there with the cover over the tank? Also is that a lifejacket bum bag? what is that called?

    • @slappintails
      @slappintails 3 дня назад

      All I did for the fuel tank is got two metal angels and siliconed and pop riveted them one to the bench seat and one to the back of my boat, I used 20mm ply and it holds me at 100kgs. Make sure us set the angle 20mm below the top of you bench seat so it’s flush to the seat. Yeah that’s a life jacket bum bag and they are so handy, I’m not sure what the brand is but I just got mine from BCF pretty sure they are about $60-80 from memory. Hope that all helps mate 🤘🏽

    • @slappintails
      @slappintails 3 месяца назад

      Hey mate, cheer it’s worked wonders for me. The brand is called- RULE inline bilge pump and I got it from my local whitworths supplier here in new south whales, I’ll see if I can work out how to add a link in the description haha. I find the water stay cool with how much water flows through the pump but if you were thinking of insulating it you could probably use the same method on an esky or something like that I suppose

  • @mikec2173

    I made exact same design from a 20 litre drum. A sardine jammed into the outlet on Day1 (and blocked it fully) whilst we had the boat anchored and were off down the beach cast netting for more livies. Did not take long for the submersible pump to fill the tinny bilges and sink it to the sand, where it rolled to one side and set off the salt-triggers in the auto-inflating PFD lifejackets stored between bulkheads in a hatch. Also flooded all my lures and other safety gear. Looked like a dugong had died and bloated in the side hatch, which burst open under the pressure Tight as drums they were, and barely accessible were the deflator valves on them. It looked like I might have to stab my PFDs to deflate them! Cost me $$ hundreds that little episode, as PFD recharge kits are ridiculously expensive. Fix was to put a tea strainer from the Air BnB kitchen as a cover on the outlet entrance in the tub. That also blocked up with scales, and we had some more floods during our week of misadventure at Hinchinbrook. All you DIY folk ...PUT A STRAINER ON THE OUTLET entrance or you too can sink your tinny. It is no fun. It is expensive. The ignominy of telling your guffawing wife of your saga is almost too much to bear. The water police have no mercy for non-functional PFDs. You have been warned!!!
