HI Don
We replaced our tank with military grade aluminum custom made by Luther Welding in Bristol RI. http://www.lutherswelding.com/ Old one was original to boat, was not leaking but did it due to its age (32 years) so it was only a matter of time. Old tank came out of lazarette – very tight fit and required some persuasion of the fill neck. I also could have removed the teak trim from the lazarette and hollowed out a small portion of the glass to fit the fill fitting if I was considering reusing it after inspection but I wasn’t so did not. Also had to reposition Sendur tank and exhaust elbow and throttle cable. Also replaced fill hose (very expensive). New one fit right in as fill fitting is screwed in, not welded so total height was less. Considered using a plastic tank but was strongly advised against due to fire hazard. Very time consuming project and tight fit all around. John and Maryann Legacy III 1982 C&C 34 Noank, CT
