Anyone have an idea what the Fuel Capacity is on the older 230's?? I'm taking it out this weekend, and it'll be my first time fueling it up. Yes I just bought it lol.

They used to have the specs for most of the older boats on the FW website, check back there and see...
My '88 H-200's tank is 44 gallons, so I bet the 230 is bigger...

The fuel tank size is $240, but don't worry, it will hold even more $ in the future.

I bet our gas on the water will be very close to $5 a gallon by the summer. That's one reason why I like the little 4.3 V-6, it is very economical. Some years I have only filled up the tank 2x.

With the sabre rattling going on right now, I expect something to blow up internationally this summer and oil prices to be at astronomical levels in the lead-up. I hope I'm wrong.

Hey AZBoatGuy...maybe you could help me a little in this thread about boating in Phoenix? I may be your neighbor soon.
