    I believe the compartment that holds the batteries, charger, etc, is open to the bilge. If so, the electrical system is unsafe. There are two non-ignition protected solar controllers, plus a household outlet/plug. None of these items are allowed in a compartment open to a fuel tank.

      It comes with all that stuff in it (except for the household plug and chargers (not sure if they are protected of not)

      The one thing I did see that needs to be addressed is the Racor filter. Double check but I don't believe you are supposed to use the plastic sight bowl in an enclosed space, They have a glass one for that.

      Otherwise it is nice. Are you going with a lager engine later?

          I think the "primer bulb" belongs outside as well.

            Yep, I missed the filter bowl and the squeeze bulb.

              Nicely done..... and what a great way to be set up for mooring in salt water.

              my comments:

              Yes, as long as there is 12 vdc in the engine bay, I believe that the primer bulb needs to be outside of the engine bay.

              The RACOR bowl should be metal, or also moved to outside of the engine bay.

              The batteries should be as far FWD as possible for better weight distribution.

              I wonder why he did not eliminate the Dog House and do a flat hatch cover?

                In the video he says it makes a nice step up to the transom and a place to sit.
