Well, I'm officially unhappy. I've got a leak in one or both of my fuel tanks. The boat hasn't been used in a year, so it could be worse. Now, I have to get some jerry jugs and siphon what's remaining so that work can eventually be started.
I'm the type of person that really doesn't want to pay someone else to do what I'm pretty sure I can do. How difficult is it to cut out the deck and replace the tanks? Also, should I go w/ aluminum tanks, or poly? Currently, she has two 50 gallon tanks, but I'm thinking I'll get two around 35 gallons or such. I do have a cross brace inbetween the stringers up front of the tanks that I've noticed has a little rot, so I'm kinda scared that once I get inside, I'll find more of a project than I want to take on, but what the hell, you only live once, right?
I guess I'm just rambling to hear myself ramble. Any experience and/or tips would be great. Thanks.
