    The liner is separate from the hull by anywhere from 1/2 to 1 1/2. So far 
I have no odor that I know of that comes from the tank not including the vent 
in the transom. I am hopping that the West epoxy will prevent the migration. 
No mechanical fasteners were used to hold the top on just 3M 5200. While this 
puts a lot of faith in the 5200, it prevents leaks around the fasteners like 
the ones that plague the water tank in the A30.

    Capacity, rough guess about 12 gal. While cursing with my wife and two 
young daughters we got about 2 days out of it (Flushing water was used 
sparingly).

Making the top is not for everyone by any means. A plastic tank using the 
full space in the keel rather then just the inner liner would be a better 
solution. I do feel that the roughing I used for the hoses worked well and 
would be glad to pass the info on if anyone gets a tank in the keel.
