After weeks of head scratching and hair pulling Neil sent off his tank design to the tank man in L.A., who promptly made the tanks.
Overjoyed with the prompt service Neil inspected the tanks and found that the baffles (small walls inside tanks to stop 160 gallons of water sloshing about) that were supposed to be inside were still sitting on a shelf in the tank making factory.
So we decided to try them for size before they were returned.
Sunday was spent, in the beating sun, heaving, pushing, pulling, dropping, and finger squashing them into and OUT (very hard work) of the bilges. ( See photos)
So they fit, and we are happy about that, can't wait to have to do it all again when they return.
Also new topside paint and non skid, we're the shiniest boat on the dock!
