I'm in the Miami area and need to make a tank for under a v-berth.

What I found is that most people don't like epoxy because of leaching.
Polyester is not so bad but you need to gell coat the thing really well
- twice. Plastics are hard to weld and you need to buy a hot gas welder
- and you need to do it in a small area. the soft tanks are what I have
now and I will be glad to give mine to someone when I am done, if they
want it.

I have found some places that will custom make a tank but the cost is
higher then I would think it should be. Does anyone know of a place
that makes tanks for less then $300?

Also, does anyone know of a good liner material to line a glass tank.
It seems no-one wants to claim their product does what it is meant to
do.

Thanks


If you build your own tank using epoxy and knitted glass then coat the
inside with epoxy tank resin (different than laminating resin), it will
cost more than $300.

Ronco, here in SoCal, has oodles and oodles of tanks. Check them out.
