After receiving my B431 tank from Ronco last week I was excited to be able to knock off another project from my to-do list. Well Saturday didn't happen as I planned so I still have lots of putzing and figuring to do but here are my first day pics.

Is that a custom size tank?

Is it going to lay on the stringers or will you put some wood or padding of some sort between the hull and tank?

How much $hit does that hold? That is similar to the tank I designed but I didn't think of making it a V.

Is that Ronco company the same that makes the "Set it and....Forget it" chicken rosters? I love watching that guy advertise those things. Applause

It is a stock tank, they must have a hundred stock tanks though.
If all the stars aligned I thought I might just cover my longitudnial stringers with some slit heavy hose. Now it looks like I will be sandwiching other material to the stringers to match the tanks shape.

It is supposed to hold 35 gals of crude.

Yes they also sell the veg-a-matic. It slices, it dices....heck I wonder if I can get a macerating pump...
