Whatever you do, DON'T install a flexible tank. They last for decades, are used in airplanes, are easy to install and maintain and are generally very reliable. I have had a flexible holding tank and a flexible potable water tank in Touche' for years and years with great success.
My boat repair buddy has a flexible diesel tank and a flexible potable water tank in his blue water cruiser. Both were custom made based on templates of his spaces. Again, no issues. However, the "list" "poo poos" them. :)~ -- Dennis C.
