Do most of you keep and use the oil jugs on the Starboard side? I found out the previous owner never used them and had no idea how old the oil was.
I would like to use the space for the watermaker motor and pump.
How much oil do you typically carry on board?
I carry 2-3 gal of engine oil, 1+ for trainies, 1g of coolant, plus oils for the tender. I've always used the empty 2x2.5g cans. I find it very convenient and good spot for storing those cans.
If I was to install a water-maker, I'm not sure that behind the exhaust pipe is the best spot, due to limited access for service.
