WEMA Senders (Fuel & Ballast)

A few months ago, I made a mini group buy of WEMA senders to replace gas tank floats on friends' 91 through 93 Ski and Barefoot Nautiques.

At that time, I contacted WEMA on group buy possibilities. They said that they will offer a 30% discount on CCFAN orders. The trick is that the orders MUST be taken over the phone....you MUST state that you are a CCFan.com member and you MUST mention my name (cuz I'm kinda of a big deal).

WEMA senders are metal rod and hard plastic float reed senders that are the standard in today's fuel and ballast tanks. They come in multiple ohm and length configurations. These are the OEM senders that Nautiques (and other not-named boat manufacturers) use for fuel and ballast tanks. If you need specialty applications - check with a Nautique Dealer - like N3 and WLM).

They are more expensive than cheapie EBay standard floats. They are more durable (with not saturate and disintegrate) and will hold up longer than regular floats. The senders are a direct swap and come with a nice wiring pigtail to make the swap easy.

Here's what they look like - and what most of us need:


WEMA Fuel/Ballast Senders

Steve, Eddie,backfoot100,did a little write up on those awhile back. They sure look like the way to go,link

I need to order one because the Ebay one I got does not work. I bought the Euro one with the right ohm range too but still shows 1/4 when full and then as I use gas it goes towards full.
Maybe they sent me the wrong one. Just haven't had the time to mess with it again.

Steve, I would like to order one for my 93 Sport.
Ask for the US style? Have the gas tank in the sloped stern section (probably like the 93 Ski).
Any advise/recomendation would be appreciated.

Get the SSS/SSL model..... Get access to your tank and drop a tape down the sender hole (or measure up the side if you have a clear shot at it).

You want a Standard American 240-33 ohms.... if you haven't swapped your Faria gauge out (I think....just guessin' here that you have the Faria standard gauge......)

Hey don't be blaming me, I tried to keep my boats origin secret you guy's blew the cover on my guides so I had to send them off to witness protection.

Hey, guys, I have a whole box of those things in my garage that I'd love to be rid of. Several different lengths, some from ballast tanks and some from fuel. If anyone is interested, I'll make you a REAL deal on the whole box of them. I'm tired of storing them.

I think at the next river run a little field trip is required,I'd venture to guess there are some treasures there.

Art, yes, $30 plus shipping is fair. Will mail you a check or paypal. Whichever you prefer. I have the standard 240-33 ohm system.
You can PM me your address and I will give you mine as well.
Thanks for breaking the full box!
Hopefully, you have one the right length. Don't break your neck measuring them....whenever it is convenient for you.

I heard back from WEMA. The water and fuel senders are in fact the same. Now I've just got to find one the correct length and test it.

Hello Art, here is my measurement directly straight into the tank (ruler bottoms out on hump in middle of tank) Let me know, happy to meet ya anywhere in Orlando.

Tried to PM you but it wouldn't let me send the pic.

Tim, I still have a box full of those senders. Are you saying I should go look and see whether I have an 11" one?

I just purchased one from discount inboard marine that is adjustable for my 87 and you have to cut the float rod length and the overall length and hook it up very straight forward and works great.
