What size fuel tanks do I have?
 
I am confused as to how big my fuel tanks are. I have read: 200, 220 and 250gal for Top Guns.

My TG is a 2002 and I "think" I have 220 (110 X2) gallons.


Can anyone confirm or clarify this for me?
Thanks

It should be labeled on the top of your tanks where the sending unit is. :)

I was wondering the same about my 2000 Tiger. I thought it was 260 gal total, but gauges read 1/2 and I put in 250 gallons. I know gauges could be off, but It got me wondering about the tank size.

Been a headache since day #1 due to mistakes from the dealer at delivery. They launched the boat w/o the plug in the bilge and the sea strainers opened. I ran out into the ocean and the overheat alarms went off. I opened the engine hatch to find 3 feet of water in the bilge. It was either sink or cook a motor to get back in. the rest is history... National has re-built both motors for me under warranty, due to thier mistake. Its just aggrevating when you spend $250k and have problems like this. A stupid mistake has caused me alot of downtime and National ALOT of $$$$$$$$$


The boat is great and will be back to maintenence free as soon as it returns to me. Marty seeems to have taken great care of this boat and it was in perfect condition upon delivery to me.

Nothing happens fast at a marina and Im tired of waiting. Ive put maybe 10 hours on the boat in 4 months due to complications related to this incident
