FUEL TANKS - NEED NEW ONES |
|
|

Port gas tank. The corrosion was WORSE than it looks. I had to remove the outside port stringer to get this out. I needed to replace the stringers anyways. |

Here is the main fuel line used when filling the tank. The entire center section of this hose is rotted and corroded. The hose is reinforced with a steel coiled interior. I have no idea how the previous owner kept from blowing himself up! |

Here is the starboard gas tank. It was in a little better shape but the corrosion was terrible too. The deminsions were:
69"X12"X8" and the capacity was aprox. 35 gallons. |

Here is one tank installed in the hull. I painted it with Interlux 2000 epoxy. I had to grind part of the deck to get the tanks in. |
