Used my Tantrum for the 1st time !
Took the boat out to Pickwick Lake this weekend . This was my first time ever using the boat since i bought it from Drock78 in December . Everything seemed to run great , and did exactly what he said it would. We did realize after running all day Saturday that fuel is leaking from somewhere into the bilge . Any ideas ?

Don't take this the wrong way, about the boat, previous owner, anything but I'd seriously pressure test the tank ASAP. If its not an obvious leak at the engine. Fuel can be treacherous to glass or coring materials.

thought about that . going to check all the lines and fuel filter next weekend and all other obvious points . If we dont find it then we'll move to the tank .
