1981 cuddy had a 60 gal from the factory
Replace with a 70 gal we designed
The old tank was full of old gas, 50+ gallons
no leaks just a little corrosion in a couple spots on the bottom

Good move to replace it. Those little corrosion spots can turn ugly quickly.

Original manufacture is still in business in Perry Florida. When i replaced mine 7 years ago, I called them and they had one in stock. Drove over the next day and picked it up, bout 150 miles one-way.

I had no idea! I had mine custom fabbed back in 2004. I'm curious: how much $?
