Default 311 ... what is it ?

Ok guys .... under the rear seat ..Starboard side ...the previous owner put down a bed of 5200 and set a regular Automotive Battery charger in it ... Has taken Hours to get the 5200 up ...And some of the Gelcoat came with it ... ...
Anyway there seems to be a grove under where the 5200 was like its a access cover ? Its still goo'd up with 5200 and there are screws around the edge ... Any ideas what this is ?

I'll try to get a pic .........m

There is no access cover there. Maybe you're seeing the edge of the removable floor section over the tank. I'll check mine again tonight to verify no access cover there.

The edge of the removable floor panel runs under the bulkhead for the seat in my 292. Does it appear to be on the same longitudinal line as in the cockpit?

Looks like a homemade access panel - not sure what's under there except for the fuel tank.

Fuel tanks in Formula SR-1s are mounted in the center under the cockpit floor.
