21.5 Explorer Manual

[Capt. Bill]

Thanks guys.  The vent is cleared as I tried that already.  Someone else mentioned that the hose may have a kink as it turns toward the tank.  Maqybe I'm looking at it wrong, but there is barely any room to even take a peak and unlike the center consoles, the floor cannot be lifted.  By the way, can anyone tell me what the fuel capacity is in the 21.5?  I was told originally 50 gals.  is that right?  Thanks again.  Lou

As Capt Bob said it's 100 gallon tank.  However, if its the same as mine it's not an even 100.  Mine is a "V" shape that sits on the center line of the boat in the keel.  Therefor the bottom half is not a true 50 gallons.  If your using the gauge on the dash as a mointor the fuel you have to keep that in mind. The float sits in the middle of the tank at it's deepest point.  You'll go a long way in the first and second quarters of a tank, but it goes quick when you get down to 3/8's.
