I was hoping someone could help me with some info.
I have a 1984 22 ft Starcraft Aluminum center console with a 1984 150 hp Mercury Blackmax outboard. I've had it for about 5-6 years, and have only used it for fluke, flounder, and stripers. I want to go out for blacks, ling, maybe even a little inshore shark/tuna...whatever. I can't find any specs on the boat or motor, as to fuel tank size, and motor fuel consumtion. I've never had the tank empty enough to see how much fuel it holds when I refill it. I've "guess"timated my fuel consumption by having the tank full, and seeing how many gallons it takes to fill it up after a day on the water, and then compare that to my estimated driven miles. I think it's about 1.5 mpg or so. Is this correct, or does anybody have any idea what an 84 150hp blackmax drinks? Also, does anybody have any idea of the tank capacity on this boat?

Thanks & tight lines,

The tank on my boat is different than yours. I know mine holds more than 20 gallons, because I could tell when it was time to open my wallet at the pump...lol.

As to the tank you are looking for, are you asking for what Brand is good, or who carries them?
