The weight gets distributed across the joists or whatever they are called on pontoons and shouldnt be a problem in transit especially with a 20HP OB out there.

Pontoon transom with gas tank. The cat is not included. Older transoms were not a long as newer ones and most had a piece of 1 12 wood to support the engine. Mercury Mercruiser Diagnostics.

Fuel tank manufactured by Moeller Marine part number FT002065BDV. My question is there some kind of inline filter that would block this substance. I have an 18 and my tank is like 11 gallons balanced out by the battery on the other side.

Seems like a good idea. Pontoon boats like all other boats and even all other vehicles can indeed come with their share of problems. Transom and in contact with the water.

In that case it would only add buoyancy if it were in the water. The 105 Long transom pod is for up to 120 hp motors can be used with or without a center tube and can support a single pole ski tow pylon. Being below the waterline on the interior of the boat wont add.

We have marine grade aluminum transoms baitwell plugs snap drain plugs and drain tubes. Any buoyancy unless the boat were swamped. I get the idea of having access to the motor mounting bolts.

Dont need the gas tank. I have a 2001 Crest pontoon boat with a plastic fuel tank mounted inside the transom. The pontoons are large tubes that allow a lot of buoyancy.
