Cool 26" wellcraft scarab

Hi all I just purchased a early 90's 26" welcraft scarab
It's a great boat but my question is where is the original fuel located in the boat I only ask because this boat has had a pod put on the back with a 225 mercury and where the inbored is there is now a newish 300lt ally fuel tank

The reason I am trying to locate the other thank if there is one when I am doing under 15 knots the ass of the boat sits low in the water I rekon with the rear tank half full and the 225 on a pod sitting 600 mm of the transom there is to much weight in the rear of the boat

26 inch boat is awful small. Better stay close to shore.

26 foot my bad the iphone did it i have done some test holes in the deck from what i can tell the fuel tank takes up most of the floor space under the floor and beteween the forward chairs

does it sound like i have to much fuel tanks space 300lt

i would assume that a 26 foot boat with a 225 mercury outboard on it would need such a large tank my biggest trip so far is 50 miles in total
