Mine is single engine and its 140 gal. If you remove the access panel under the back seat there should be a info tag on the tank, that's where mine was.

I have a 2006 and it's 140 gallons (twin 6.2s but I don't think that makes a difference). I've read on this forum that the gauge goes down slowly at first and then quickly. I'll test the lower "limits" of the gas gauge this coming summer with 5 or so extra 5-gallon tanks onboard.

Our tanks have always been shallow and long. Fuel stacks up at the back of the tank showing a gauge on "FULL". Having low profile sleek boats with low CG equates to long and fairly shallow tanks. Be careful when testing the lower limits. If we can ever assist you with service or customization please give us a call or send an e-mail.
