Mangroovin Posted January 17 Report Share Posted January 17 Had a few pics of my recent gas tank change out on my 2003 21 RF. Very happy with the outcome - except the part of filling a fully empty tank with non ethanol.....ouch$!! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SW Skif Posted January 17 Report Share Posted January 17 You’ll be back on the water soon enough. Clean work. Shop in Naples? Progress Avenue by chance? So far a rainy and mild winter for SW Florida. I’m hoping this is going to be an exceptional spring. You are just in time Mangroovin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoneyB Posted January 18 Report Share Posted January 18 looks very nice. I am guessing the whole floor has fresh Gel coat and textured non skid? One more question, What did you coat the tank with. Sorry for all the questions but with a project boat in the works I love the details of others work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tank was coated with epoxy which should add to its lifespan. Also was built with 3/16" aluminum instead of the 1/8" that the original was. All good stuff. Should out live me......unless I figure out a way to live to about 110.😁 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They did a great job.😎 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fords4x4 Posted April 11 Report Share Posted April 11 The new tank looks great and the shop did an amazing job. If you don't mind me asking how much did the job run you from start to finish? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim-nashville Posted April 21 Report Share Posted April 21 Why did you decide to replace your tank? Was it leaking? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caught it as soon as it leaked fortunately. Could have been real trouble. On 4/21/2024 at 6:24 AM, Jim-nashville said: Why did you decide to replace your tank? Was it leaking?
