In the late 1980's I worked in the Norwell plant and installed Fuel tanks and the tank covers on the 18,20,22 and 25 ft hulls. We used bedding compound on the screw holes for the tank covers and also around the tank covers. Over time the edge of the tank cover would likely need to be redone.
This spring I bought a 1989 Outrage 18 and the tank cover is solid and the sealant looks good around the edge of the tank cover. There was 3 to 4 of us that installed tanks and I wonder if I installed the tank and tank cover on my new boat.
