Aluminum tank mounting
I've read lots of advice to the effect that an aluminum tank must be
mounted so that it doesn't stay wet. I've seen suggestions for glueing plastic stringers to the bottom to support it, for example. My tank is in side of the bilge, and is thus triangular in athartship cross section. It rests on the lower edge and the upper outboard edge. I'm wondering if it would work to cover the whole lower edge in fiberglass epoxied to the aluminum. I would think that would keep it dry and give me a good mounting surface. Any thoughts? |
