Fuel tank installation - console/cabin skiff

I'm befuddled about installing a fuel tank. It's getting to the point where I have to make a decision.

I'd like to install a permanent tank of about 12 gallons, but haven't been able to find a place on the boat that'll accomodate one. I could add an alumminum tank on each side of the motorwell, but that requires fabrication. I could fit a rectangular 11"x15"x16" tank in each space but I can't locate one.

My other thought was to add a permanent take in front of the center console, and cover it with a box/seat. Or add a bow tank.

Any suggestions?

Thanks
