Few things wich are plan to make before next season..


- new fuel tanks both side
- new outside doors to cabin (no doors at all at the present)
- door to the toilet room
- cabin seats both pontoon side
- dash pantings
- wideband o2 sensor for both engines
- + others wich havent pop up in mind yet..

Winter are diffucult time to make anything when boat are
covered in backyard, so thread will move slowly.
On going comments and ideas will be wellcome..

Where we stand now.

Both fuel tanks has cut open in cabin.
Plan is put new ones inside in older tanks.
New ones are smaller and tanks dos not come in cabin anymoore.

Other pic show how cabin seems now.

For the O2, one possible is PLX system.

What a.. sun gave first little taste of spring shine :thankyouthankyou:

Still snow every where, winter go away, go away..

Pair PLX DM6 units and nuts for exhaust tubes has arrived.

also pair of seats in the cabin has found and waiting assembly.

Hmmm. Was size capacity are the original fuel tanks each?
Sure mounted forward a bunch. Are all Chris Cats fuel tanks mounted like yours? I know that the AO and Awesome vary a small amount, but both are mounted rearward of your location.

Orginal was 400litres/205gal per side, total 800l/211gal.

Not all chris has same, this boat are orginal race hull with
three man side by side cockpit.

I have measure that new tank volume (under cockpit)
Are near 250l/66gal per side total 500l/132gal.

Sure its almost half than orginal but i want
More deep/space in cabin area..

interesting traed I'll follow for sure !

:ernaehrung004:


Anyone know what are those bungs ??

O2 sensor

It looks like, thats make O2 sensor assemply VERY easy. :)
I have allready separate short bungs for welding...no need for those anymoore.

O2 to one side... What about EGT sensor to other side,
Is it any worth in that place ?

WOW 205 gallon tanks!!! Betcha with full tanks that added some weight. 66 gallon tank will put you right in the ballpark with the AO and Awesome's. Here is the rear location of my tank. Rear portion of the tank is about 8-10 inches within the engine compartment beyond the rear bulkhead.
