    fuel tank size?

    what size is the fuel tank on a 2004 295 pro xl. I thought I had a 42 gallon tank and my dealer says it should be a 50 gallon tank? Which is it?

    I can't find my '04 brochure; however, the 2003 brochure shows 36 gal for the 195 and the 2005 brochure shows 42 gal for the 195/295. I'd say it is 42 gallon.

    I found the 2004 Brochure. Page 12. . .Fuel Capacity on a 295 is 42 gal.

    The 50 gallon tanks are only on 200 and 201's.

    I thought it was a 42gal tank. My sending unit went bad and I had it replaced. The gauge wasn't working correctly. With a full tank, it would show 1/2 a tank. Ran on that full tank for 4 days on a large lake and it never budged. I siphured out 15 gal. That should of been between a 1/4 to 1/2 tank. I didn't trust it. Took it back to the dealer to make sure the float wasn't sticking. They told me I had a 50 gal tank. anyway they say its working fine? I'll find out this spring. thanks for all your responses.

    My 1998 295 Pro Elite has a 45 gallon tank. At least that's what Stratos told me.
