been looking at a 18' tracker Grizzley with a center console and using a
motor i already have. My only concern is it looks to have a small area for a
fuel tank and batteries. I'd like room enough for 12 tank . I have a hard
time believing that they make a boat this size rated for up to a 90hp and
only room for a 6 gallon tank???any ideas?

The 1860CC ? I can't see what space there is under that rear deck if any.
You are going to have to look at one. There are fuel tanks in various
shapes available. I foud an 11 gallon that fit my jon boat behind the rear
bench. A Waco 2050-16 (a 16 footer)

It's hard to see, but I'd guess that there's room to get two 6 gallon tanks
under the rear deck. Have you looked at one up close and personal? I'd go
to BassPro and actually see what size tank or tanks you can fit into the
space.

If a Bass Pro in his region has one. The didn't have any of the bigger jons
at Bass Pro in Las Vegas when I was there. Just the smaller ones, and the
more dressed up boats.

He definitely needs to go look at one and measure the space, then go on-line
and see what size and shape (dimensions) tanks are available. That's what I
had to do to find the right tank for my Whacko.
