How Do You Know The Condition Of Your Fuel Tank

 

So everybody should know that fuel tanks can be a big problem when buying a boat. These tanks were 15 years old. They have failed and will be replaced.

Design of the tanks and method used to install is a very big part of how long a tank will last. Climate plays a big role on how long a tank lasts. Has the tank been kept full when not being used and what type fuel was used during the life of the tank.

Some boat designs and install techniques have produced good results and some have not.

Poly tanks of old cause issues because they are permeable.

Lots of questions when it comes to tanks and a surveyor that studies design and track records can help with the questions.
