This may be a stupid question, but how long does a fuel line need to be?
For years when buying the prepackaged fuel lines I just used the full length of the line on small boats, which I believe is about 7'.
Never thought about it until now, but it makes sense to only use as much as needed to be able to steer the motor.
Any rule of thumb to apply as for the length of the fuel line?
 
I've had several small fishing boats and have placed the tank in different spots on all of them. I have always tailored the fuel line length to fit my needs and have never had an issue.
