I want to get some sort of portable fuel [diesel] tank for
daily/weekend use rather than only having the built-in tank [for

condensation, etc..

What tank do you recommend and what setup regarding connecting the day
tank to the engine for easy quick connect/disconnect ?

Gratefully,
Courtney


If you need to go to the complexity of a day tank, you might actually be
happier with a permanent tank installation that includes a separate fill
from a portable tank where you keep the "virgin" fuel you talk about.
The concept of connecting portable tankage into a marine fuel system
with other large tanks seems fraught with booby traps. Good luck with
whatever you do...
