[Public-List] A30 Fuel tank

[Dave Yamakuchi]

 Aquila's (#64) PO had her fitted with two 20gal stainless tanks under the cockpit benches.  It was too much weight in the wrong place(s) IMO.

 We (Brevity #601) still have the original 19gal. aluminum tank located directly beneath the cockpit sole.  No issues except we did resecure and reconnnect the tank during a 2018 refit.  

Seems to me that having fuel/water tankage on centerline makes sense.
