Deciding between an aluminum vs a plastic tank can be hard and sometimes the answer is ‘what fits in my boat'. Plastic marine fuel tanks are much lighter and less expensive. They are also corrosion resistant, and not susceptible to degradation from ethanol fuels. Aluminum tanks are extremely strong, can offer the added benefit of baffles which prevents fuel sloshing back and forth, and if kept away from corrosion-inducing moisture, should last for years and years.

Turnoff anything that might cause a spark or has open flames, see your manual for examples. Smoking definitely not, a cigarette can start a fire. Fumes can settle into low spaces and stay there long after fueling creating a dangerous situation. So close any openings to keep fumes from entering the boat while you’re fueling. Disconnect and remove portable fuel tanks from the boat and fill them on the dock. Fuel up during the day when you can clearly see what you’re doing. Night fueling should only be done in an emergency.

Hey everybody its Rob Nelson. I’m doing a little series with boat-ed.com and one of the videos is how to make sure you’re following proper safety procedures when you're putting fuel into your boat because it could be dangerous. So not only do you need to be safe but the plants and animal all around really don’t like that gasoline to be floating around in their environment. So we made this little video to make sure that you’re safe and responsible when you fill up your gas thanks. So check it out. here

And everybody has got to be off the boat before fueling and finally have one of these on hand. Fire extinguisher you bet always keep one handy. And while we fill up, we keep the nozzle in contact with the tank opening to prevent it from producing static sparks. And we never fill a tank to the top which helps us avoid spilling fuel into the boat’s bilge or into the water. Plus it leaves room for the fuel to expand. here
