Portable gas tank

[RippinLips]

Anybody know anywhere in the lower mainland that sells or custom makes fuel tanks? I’m looking for something that will fit under my splashwell in a 16ft fibreglass. Wanting something between 12-20 gallons,

That area will be very wet and the tank will have to breathe. Are you sure that’s where you want to put it?

Not 100% certain, but that’s where it was when I bought the boat. I guess my other alternative is in the bow and running a longer fuel line.

Another era ago when I had my 17ft Hourston, I had the foam removed under the sleeper seats. Replaced with two 11gal tanks. Worked well.

Where would a guy go to inquire about something like that?

I used a local fiberglass guy in Courtenay. But since he got caught lifting others crab traps in Comox Bay, I wont recommend him . I know CV Marine has good guys that could do it... but its time consuming to remove the foam, so it might be pretty expensive
