The little tank up top is a puke tank. As far as the stack tanks, that is just the style he chooses to run that much fuel. You can see it tear drop down to avoid sloshing. I personally don't like the stack tanks as it is just too tall and too much to look at. We run Imco rectangular tanks that sit lower and have a separate chamber that prevents sloshing. You don't want a bunch of weight up high in the boat when you are going around turns at 60 or 70.
