[Alberg30] Replacement fuel tanks?

[George Dinwiddie]

Ed,

Tempo lists their tanks at http://www.tempoproducts.com/belowtank.html 
and http://www.tempoproducts.com/belowtank2.html, but I don't see 
anything small.  One option would be to put a vertical tank in the 
starboard locker.  If you want a small tank, I'm sure that Bill Mattox 
(coolweld at hotmail.com, skipper of Limerick #227) could build you a 
custom tank.
