Water tank liners

Post by Ceasar Choppy »

I've looked through the archives and couldn't find much, but I thought I'd ask:

Does anyone know of a good source for custom liners for potable water tanks? I've got some mystery leaks in my FG tanks and while I could slather some epoxy around, I thought I'd look into this option. The tanks are built in and while I could grind them out, I'm not happy with the prospects of trying to fit new tanks in.

As others have mentioned before, the Nauta, Vetus, Plastimo bladders aren't even close to the dimensions!

TIA

Ditto on that request. This problem has eluded me too.

So far the best solution I've found is (lots of) gallon water jugs from the supermarket strategically placed around the boat.
