This is my starboard tank.



This is my port tank.



At least one side needs work. Before I get into it, does anyone know what kind of fittings these are and where I might find replacements? I'm hoping they are screw in. I wrote to C-dory. Do you think I'll get an answer?

Plus, that fuel fill line looks like it's going to be a bitch to work with being such a short run and not much flex.

I don't know but hopefully others will know and or the tank vendor decal is on tank in a different locations My AL tank is made by RDS and has a nice decal by the fittings and specs. My fuel pickup fittings are made of aluminum. Does your tank have a bonding wire (ground)

D'oh. Good call. Found the info on the side. It's a Moeller poly tank. I'll contact them.

This is what it looks like when a battery in the starboard lazarette is boiled over and acid runs down onto the fuel tank. Lots of water and baking soda to get this mess cleaned up and neutralized.
