摘要

A fuel pump mounting arrangement for a fuel system of an engine powering a watercraft is disclosed. The watercraft has a hull defining an engine compartment and having a lower surface, a water propulsion device, and an internal combustion engine positioned in the engine compartment and supported by the lower surface of the hull. The engine has an output shaft arranged to drive the water propulsion device. The watercraft has an air intake system for supplying the engine with air for use in a combustion process, the intake system including at least one air intake through the hull leading into the engine compartment, the watercraft including a fuel supply system for supplying fuel from a fuel supply to the engine for combustion, the fuel supply system including a fuel pump delivering fuel from the fuel supply to said engine, the fuel pump positioned to avoid exposure to water which enters the engine compartment through the hull.
