[Alberg30] Flexible Tanks

[sousa, stephen (ENG)]

Roger,

I know of an owner with a Pearson Vanguard who installed a flexible holding
tank. This was a big mistake, it would leak into the bilge. The tank was
removed to install a regular holding which never caused a problem. 

The Alberg Assoc. sponsored a group purchase two years ago for holding
tanks. The company that made them for Raritan is Duracast in Florida. The
tank we ordered needed modifications to fit in the v-berth of the boats
without liners. The tank is installed in #114 and worked well this summer.
If you need more particulars, please contact me off line.

Stephen

Albergers,

Does anyone have any experience with flexible tanks?  I seem reasonable in
price and, well, "flexible."  I thought of putting a waste tank and perhaps
fuel tank under the main cabin bunks.

Any feedback would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Roger Kingsland
