I am enclosing the gas tank on my new boat under a rear deck. I am concerned about fumes and want to vent the tank. I have looked at vents and am thinking of getting this one - https://greatlakesskipper.com/produ...ine-attwood-90-degree-boat-gas-tank-vent.html
The info suggests making an anti-siphon loop in the vent line. Has anyone done this and do you have any advice or suggestions on venting gas tanks? My boat is a Tracker Grizzly 1448. I have room behind the back seat for a 6 gal tank on one side and the starting battery on the other with room to spare. I know from my last project that gas fumes will be present. I just want to be careful, particularly with the battery in there.
BTW, Great Lakes Skipper has lots of stuff and some pretty good prices. I have ordered from them before and have had good service and delivery.
