Best Boat Gas Tanks of 2025

“I needed extra fuel containers for my trip to Alaska. These worked perfectly—no leaks at all! I suspect any issues were likely due to human error with installation. They did bulge a bit in the sun, but that’s normal. Just remember to release the pressure before connecting.”

“I’ve been using this tank for almost a year without any problems. The viewing glass is very helpful, and I love that the carrying handle is on top, making it easy to carry.”

“I purchased this tank as an extra fuel source for my cross-country trip. I realized that the red plastic plug is meant to be temporary and will leak, so I replaced it with a proper threaded plug. This tank fits perfectly in my truck and will be great for my long journey.”

"I appreciate that this tank doesn't inflate like others I've seen. I used my factory hose, and I'm very pleased with my purchase. I'd definitely buy it again. The gauge is a nice touch, too!"

"While the hose feels a bit cheap and has low-quality connectors, it still works great overall. I'm satisfied with its performance."

"It’s hard to find tanks that come with a gauge. This one is well built and has a good hose, which is a plus for me."

"I experienced a leak where the hose assembly connects, which affected the gas flow and caused the motor to miss. I wouldn't recommend this product!"

"While the hose is a bit cheap and thin, it's still suitable for smaller outboards. The tank itself is of good quality, and I appreciate the space-saving size along with the fittings and fill cap."

"I purchased this tank and was 100% satisfied. It's a great gas tank with an accurate gas gauge and a low profile design. I love how easy it is to use, and I think it's a fantastic bargain!"

"After reading reviews about the tank swelling in heat, I decided to replace the ventless cap with a vented one before using it. I’m glad I did! Now, I have no issues with swelling, and the fuel gauge works perfectly."

"I bought this tank for my personal hovercraft. It's the perfect size and lightweight, plus it includes a level indicator. The only downside is that the line adaptor feels a bit flimsy, but overall, it's a good product."

“I was pleasantly surprised by the better quality than I expected. It really does the job as it should, and I would definitely buy another and recommend this product to anyone.”

“I encountered a fuel strainer in the tank under the fill cap that caused a mess. I had to remove it before fueling to avoid gasoline everywhere. Also, the hose/bulb does not work properly, so I would suggest people to stay away.”

“I like the size for my 12-foot boat, but my motor would cut out due to the gas line. The prime ball collapsed because the inlet ball valve was stuck. After hitting it a few times on the boat, it ran fine, but I still don’t fully trust it. I ordered a new highly rated bulb to replace it.”

"I found out the fuel tank on my sailboat was leaking. Instead of pulling the boat out of the water, I bought this little tank to put inline with my 2-cylinder diesel. So far, things are working pretty good. This isn't made with cheap plastic; it's thick-walled and very durable. I had to add a brass fitting for a return line, and drilling through it showed just how thick it is. I would recommend this to anyone."

"I bought this tank as a gift for my son, and he's very happy with it. It seems to be exactly what he needed for his projects."

"When I received the tank, it wasn't a 3-gallon like I ordered, but it was compact enough to fit under the boat seat for my kicker motor. It turned out better because I could carry more gas onboard. I switched out the cap for an airflow one because this one doesn’t have an air release. Sturdy and portable, just as I needed!"

"I own several of these tanks for my pressure washers on my trailers. They allow me to run all day without needing to refuel. The only downside is the venting issue; I have to leave the cap slightly open in Florida to relieve pressure, and they can become wobbly due to expansion. However, I appreciate the fuel gauge that shows a good reserve."

"When I bought my small Sun Tracker pontoon, the included six-gallon tank just wasn't enough. After measuring the stainless box it sits in, I found this tank to be twice the capacity, which is exactly what I needed!"

"I like exploring Lake Mead, but it can get rough out there. With the 12-gallon capacity, I can confidently run for over 10 hours with my 20hp Tohatsu. While the tank is tough, it can be a bit hard to lift when full. I docked one star because I'm concerned about potential leaks if left in my car on a hot day."

"This product works perfectly with my 40hp 4 stroke. I had no issues with it when the vent is open, and I was pleased to find that it doesn't leak when the vent is closed, even on hot days."

"I bought this along with their manual vent cap because I needed it for a 1/4” fuel line that quickly draws fuel to the engine. It's essential to open the manual vent for optimal performance!"

"I was getting tired of lifting 6 gallons of fuel into my boat with one arm. This 3.2-gallon option is a great alternative. So far, it's been completely adequate for my trips."

"I bought this tank and had a major problem with the hose connector installation. I had to remove the whole gauge assembly, and unfortunately, it led to gas leaking everywhere. I wouldn't recommend this tank."

"Having used a 6-gallon tank for years, I found it heavy and awkward. The 3-gallon tank not only solves that but also has a thick handle that makes carrying it much easier without spilling gas. I'm really happy with my purchase!"
