Thanks Dave.I talked with fiberlay about building this tank. I am using 3 layers polyester, followed by 2 layers of vynalester on all biaxial cloth/mat. 2 coats gel coat all followed with couple of coats epoxy barrier coat. Hopefully that will last.

This is requiring me to make one out of fiberglass. No one makes a tank this size and shape needed. This led me to checking the hoses for condition. I found that the hoses from the toilet to tank are severely clogged. Not sure how any fluid was getting through. Currently with the aft cabin torn apart my boat is unusable for anything, including living aboard, which I am. My question is this. What does everyone use to help keep the lines clear? Do you pull them out every few years and clean them? Is there a chemical that I can flush down that will help keep them clean?Thanks,Doug-- Douglas Mountjoy253-208-1412Port Orchard YC, WARebecca LeahC&C LandFall 39 Thanks to all of the subscribers that contributed to the list to help with the costs involved.
