Question about the dual tanks on 1987 27FC
I only see a tank vent on the starboard side of the boat. Is there no vent on the port side?
My port tank drains significantly faster than my starboard tank when both tank valves are open. For every 3-4 gallons I put in the port tank, I only put 1 gallon in the starboard tank. Any obvious reason for this or is there an issue with the system/user error?
TIA!

Re: A27 fuel tanks
I have an '85 A27 Express (no aft cabin). It has different fuel tank(s) than you have. My A27 has two 50 gallon saddle tanks. there is a vent just below the gunnel on each side - near to the fuel fill for each tank.
