SOLVED!

Filled up last night.....all 51 gallons (half tank).

I found out two things.

1) the pump at the marina pumps A LOT faster than at the gas station

2) Having the family stand on the starboard side helped the fuel flow into the tank.

So, I just had to pump the gas at 1/2 volume (holding the gas pump valve only half way) and then it only hiccup'd twice until it was truly filled.

Thanks again for all the suggestions and advise. I feel a lot better that I don't have a fuel line re-route job to do!

got fish?
