Dennis — have you forgotten about the boat I worked on several years back that was struck by lightning? It was a really hot day, and the second day of a charter; the boat got struck, and had to be towed into the marina. I went aboard the next morning; it was about 100F below, and reeked to

Let me be the first to post about a failed flex\bladder tank. Pegasus had 2, 1 for black water (leaked), the other was a square tank under the v berth. Could only put 10 gallons in a 40 gallon tank. Rest was air. Replaced both with plastic much happier.  Doug MountjoysvPegasusLF38

Replace it with a flex tank. I love my flex tanks. I don't have a single rigid tank on Touche'. For some reason, flex tanks don't have a strong following. However, in being a member of this list for a decade and a half, I do not remember a single post about a failure of a flex tank. There

Harry, Kracor is a brand and they are molded LLDPE plastic. Welded tanks are made differently and they are either LDPE or HDPE. Molded tanks are generally higher quality than welded tanks. Bob Bob Boyer S/V Rainy Days (1983 C Landfall 38 - Hull #230) Blog: dainyrays.blogspot.com Email:
