The fuel vent hose on my 1988 228 Mako has turned to 'mush' and deteriorated to the point it must be replaced. I lifted the deck panel covering the fuel tank and found the boat's flotation foam covers the vent line. The vent line 'snakes' from top the fuel tank, down along the side of the fuel tank and up along the boat's port side to the vent fitting. The vent line is basically encapulated in the hard foam the entire length. I can only view the two ends of the hose. Anyone have any ideas how to remove the vent line and install a new one with the foam everywhere?
