I may be missing the part in the BS guide here. Can i fit/have the fuel tank in the outboard well ? The engine well will be sealed all around from the deck area so no fumes will get into the boat from above.  |

If you seal the engine well and its an outboard motor then it might gas itself and stall due to lack of oxygen.

Probably ok then. I've got a 14ft double ended GRP fishing boat with an internal outboard motor well and when I put my 6hp Tohatsu on it the motor gases itself at higher power outputs (boat not moving fast).
Its only open at the top being a full enclosed well so I guess the exhaust gas builds up and can't escape.
