I debated the same thing many times and always decided to stay with the 6 gallon cause of the fact that I can carry a spare can and put it wherever I want if I need to balance the load better.

I ran a 12 under the extended deck on my Phowler, and I've seen guys running them under the deck in their Geaux hulls.

I have a plastic 9 gallon tank I got at Cabelas under the extended deck of my Phowler. It's gonna be nice not to have to buy gas every day when I hunt two in a row.

I built this one for my boat. Its 1/8" diamond plate with two handles on it in case I need to take it out when its full of fuel. Also good for tieing chit down. It holds 12 1/2 gallons. Sorry I don't have better pics at this time.boat in h2o1.jpg

Not much on a radio in a boat, but I gotta hand it to you FD, that's a very nice setup.
