Yes, a hole in a boat's gas tank can significantly affect an outboard engine. Fuel can leak out, leading to reduced fuel supply and potential engine stalling or failure to start. Additionally, water or contaminants can enter the tank through the hole, compromising fuel quality and causing damage to the engine components. This situation can also pose safety hazards, such as fire risks or environmental pollution.

How do you remove inboard boat motor?

It depends on the boat. Some have an engine cover that is removable and the engine can be removed easily. Others have the engine under a deck and you literally have to cut a hole in the deck to remove the engine. On really big boats it may be easier to cut a hole in the side of the boat to remove the engine.
