How have you been routing your outboard fuel lines?
I'm converting my Tohatsu 5hp from internal to external tank.
It seems awkward having fuel hose run from under hatch opening at bottom...Up and over the stern deck to motor. (I've got the Spartan bracket).
My thought is drilling hole in lazarette where tank is stored so the hose runs thru aft bulkhead... then route it thru the aft deck via a bronze deck fitting OR possibly thru stern.

My 22 had a hole thru the back of the tank locker to the aft bulkhead and another hole thru the stern...with a rubber oring washer to fit the opening

Re: Question for CD 22 owners - outboard fuel line
@shavdog, thanks much. sounds similar to what I'm wanting to do. since I have the Spartan bracket, I am thinking an access hole thru the stern makes the most sense, should allow for enough room to bend on the fuel line into the engine inlet.
