Okay, so I have just completed installing a new Moeller below deck 13 gallon fuel tank on the shelf underneath the lazarette on the starboard side. And I have fitted a new diesel fill port in the corresponding spot on the starboard side just as the original OEM fill is on the port side.
Now need to reroute the fuel supply line from the OEM tank on the port side which is being decommissioned.
The Racor filter is part of the loop.
I never was comfortable where one of the PO's had mounted it. Affixed to the rear port side corner of the interior of the engine compartment box. Difficult to access.
I am curious if this is the location that other Cherubini Hunter 36 owners have chosen. Or if there is a better spot. I suppose the main criteria are easy to access and enough out of the way that it can't be damaged by say items being stored in the lazarets.
Ideas are welcome!
