if you place your fuel tank low in the hull how do you keep the water from entering that part of the hull .....thanks....bob

Bob,

The Shaman and Lynx hulls are supposedly sealed internally to prevent water damage. Make sure you have 1/8" drain holes inside the front tips to let water out. I've had two Lynx boats and never had an issue after draining water out, it only gets in if boat is flipped.

did you place the 12 oz tanks below and inside of the hull or is the tank on top of the rear section of the hull ?....thanks.....bob

 

[Robert Pickard]

The tank should be behind the radio box i use rubber bands to hold it down

There should be a cutout just in front of the transom where the tank should drop down in the hull. I don't recall what size is in mine but if a 12 oz won't fit use a 10 oz with a hooper tank stacked on top. The hull itself should hold the tank in pretty tight but for a little added security you can wedge some foam down in there.
