    They were given to me by my dad. Total cost $0.00 for aluminum tanks, couldn't pass it up. Most of it was built with donated/leftover/junk parts in sticking with the Zero budget!

    Actually only hold about 8-10 gallons a piece. They look larger in the picture than they really are. Battling engine gremlins now, broken coil wire and bad fuel pump. Got them all fixed and going to get out again in the morning and see what happens. By far an excellent handling boat, great fun!

A couple of the greatest gains we got out of this boat was flattening and filling in the pad, and notching the sides out an inch and about 6 ft forward, so they would clear the water at speed. It has definitely been a fun boat for 23 years.
