I have what look to be two sockets on the rear of my transom, 71 F31
there on the outside, spaced equally on the transom , what are they for?

Ladder mounts ? Do you have a photo ?

I dont think there for a ladder, the ladder is on the port side, and is mounted, these are spaced pretty far apart,
I dont have a close up picture,

here is a picture its the two items to the left and the right of the name,

I'm not sure, but I think they are vents for your fuel tanks.

you know, I think your right,,,lol
thanks

I not saying I agree with Gerry , but don't smoke arond them sockets LOL

I hear ya, thats kinda a wacky spot for that isnt it

I wouldn't recommend mounting a Magma grill on that back rail either.

do any of you guys know the capacity of those tanks, on my F31

where do your scuppers come out?

My 69 31' Trojan had 2 - 60 gal. tanks. They sat behind the engines & in front of the rear hatch. I had 2 aluminum deck plates that opened to get to the fuel shut off valves. The gas deck fills and vents were on the sides. I see in the picture that yours are on the stern.

Aren't those the optional, dual transom cigarette lighters?

i just looked at your pic of the ''sockets'' on your transom.... i have a total of 4 that look the same on my '76 f-32... 2 port/2 starboard.... they are indeed fuel tank vents.

I have 2-50 gal tanks on my 1972 F30. They have been replace so not sure if they are the same capacity of the original but they are close.
