1988 Striper 200

A couple of question on the Fuel tank coffin.
1st - The coffin has 5 perfectly round 1" holes. 1 in each corner and 1 in the back center, all at the coffin base. I assume these are factory and are there for drainage into the bilge? Where they also used for straps for the original tank? (tank was already out when I purchase the boat)
2nd coffin is about 11.5" deep - does anyone know how tall the original tank was?
Thanks All - really appreciate the feedback

Hi DD,
Did you get a chance to look through this thread? http://classicaquasport.com/smf/index.php?topic=13398.0

Thanks Rick - I did see that thread but did not look all the way thru - good info - I'm thinking of ordering a tank that is 7.25" tall but was concerned about the Fill hose connection being able to fit below the deck. I think I will have enough clearance though. thanks
What about the 1st question - any thoughts on the holes?
thanks
DD
