Cal 27 Question

[dazedandintune]

Dumb question but...Where is the fueling access suppose to be located? I just saw a boat with it in the floor of the cockpit which seemed odd.

[Mike Vogdes]

Usually on the deck at the gunnel around the cockpit area on most production boats. Many sailboats have the fuel tank under the cockpit sole.

Many , many older boats had them jn cockpit sole so any spill could be washed out the scuppers . Now you will go to jail for that !

[ATC]

The Cal 29/30 fuel fill was on the starboard gunnel. Not sure on the 27, however the floor of the cockpit is not uncommon.

Greetings and welcome aboard the CF, dazedandintune.

ABYC H-33.12.7. Fuel fill(s) shall be located and oriented so that no fuel can enter the boat when in the static floating position ...
