The United States Coast Guard
requires that all inboard boats like your
Jet Boat have visual access to fuel filler
clamps and hoses. The Jet Boat has
two access panels for this purpose.
One access panel is located on the
upper deck wall on the port side, visible
when the engine hatch is opened. The
second access panel is located under
the port side passenger seat.
To access the under-seat inspection
panels, lift out the center portion of
each seat cushion, remove the bench,
then unscrew the inspection cover.
