A small planning boat includes a filler opening for a fuel tank and an
opening section that are formed on the deck of the boat body. The filler
opening and the opening section are covered with a hatch cover when the
hatch cover is closed. A fuel-receiving concave section is formed around
the filler opening, so that the filler opening is positioned at the
bottom surface section of a fuel-receiving concave section. A guide
groove that declines downward from the bottom surface section on an outer
side of the boat body can be formed as one piece with the fuel-receiving
concave section. A storage section can also be formed inside the opening
section. In addition, the filler opening can be positioned on the
starboard side rearward from the opening section, and the guide groove
can be formed in a section on an outer side of the opening section.
