I am in need of a fuel tank as mine was stolen while I had my boat at a shop to have a custom tarp made for it.

Welcome to the forum robsonmor259 !

Sorry to hear about your misfortune ...
Hope they didn't screw up any thing, when they removed it ...
Were you thinking about replacing it with metal or plastic ?
Or just anything that will fit ...

Not sure if it's the same style as the older CV's ?
If it is I can get you some pictures and dimensions.

I have a steel 18 gal tank that came out of the V195 that I restored. It is in good shape. Its a rectangle shape. I can get dimensions if needed.
I think this has become an addiction.

Dave's CVX has the fuel fill hole in the same general location on the deck as my CV.
Breather / overflow / fuel line wouldn't be hard to reroute ...
Shipping it to Canada could be a problem ?
