Come to the Pirates run on Seneca lake. If I remember correctly my 1985 mistress had 2 - 90 gallon tanks. Good luck,

I don't think there's twin tanks, one fuel fill starboard side gunnel, it's an '83 Mistress .............the lake Seneca run is doable!

I would say you have one tank @ 160 gallons, have your guy check to make sure you only have one fuel gauge.

Just looked at your dash pic, you only have one gauge.
