    My buds 1994 190 had a 31 gallon rear tank. Or at least he said it held 31 gallons. Odd the discrepancy in what we all think it is, surely it’s documented someplace???

    If it is like the one in the 93 201 I had, it's 30. If the crossover portion of the tank is forward, then I think those were 35 or 36 gal. Mine crossed over under the splashwell.

    It was 30 gal, maybe 31. The tag label was still on the tank, but I sold the boat in 2010, so relying on my memory ain't what it used to be.

    My '93 190 has that same tank but it's only 24 gallons or so. I've run it pretty low and the most I could pump in was 21-22 gallons at one time.

    This was my buds 190, I’m not sure how he came to the conclusion of the tank size; but he did do odd things such as running it dry just to fill it and see. Or maybe he read the sticker under the hose.

    32 is correct, I was brain cramping on years
    Here's what happens when you start to lose your faculties:
    I KNOW a front tank is 18 gallons.
    Was it 50 or 60 total? For whatever reason the 60 light went off in that pinball machine in my melon.

    Take the tank compartment lid off and lie on the rear deck and over into the bilge. A lot easier than trying to work over the side.

    If that was my boat I would take the batteries out pour in a half bottle of dawn and fill the hull with water then take on an hour trip through the hills. That will clean it up somewhat. I would drain it on the side of the road cause it gonna have some junk come out of it. the tank looks just like mine.
    My favorite color is clear.

    Some simple green and water will clean it up pretty good also. I have used greased lighting with great success also. New 8 inch jackplate will be here next week as Hydrodynamics has to build one, new NFB steering suppose to be here today, ordered new windshields from C&O yesterday and various other things ordered.

    Scrubs in a bucket works wonders on the tank

    Push on them up to turn on, down to turn off. Or vise versa.

    On my 190, as long as the main power switch at the console is on, the lockers lights come on automatically when you open the lid. There are push bottom switches in the corners of the lockers.

    No switches in the corners....i believe Matt Mosher is correct as i noticed the light lens rotates up and down like a light switch.
