Mesh (netting) behind the chairs and in the bow area
 
I've scoured the forums, but I can't find mention of these trash/whatever holders that obviously are all stretched out over time. Anyone know where to get replacement for it? Or have a clever idea of what to use instead?

Hi 1999Mariah,

I am in the process of reviving mine on the seat backs and when I'm finished, it'll be posted in the "How-To" section. I'll give you a little hint, "New Elastic". :yes_grin:

Left chair is a before - Right chair is an after - Good call WW:yes_grin:

On a side note, what's this black do-dad?

I've never seen anything like that before! Anyone else have one of these on their boat?

The seat mesh repair looks great. :wink_thumbup:

The black "do-dad" is the vent for the gas tank.

Ahhh...gas vent! makes sense! - Yeah inside it's connected to a tube that runs by the motor and through under the center of the hull. So where's the gas tank located?

Thanks! Amazing what a $1.50 in elastic and a few minutes can do!

Yep, I've got one of those do-dads and yep, if I don't slow down the pump when nearing full, fuel will slosh out of it when the pump clicks off.

Gas tank is under the floor between the engine compartment and the ski locker

That problem could be solved by one of these: Fuel Whistle.

I don't have one, but I've heard they do work well.
