I bought fuel tanks on Amazon.

Three vendors. One wanted 1900 for two w/ship. Another 900. Amazon 550; free ship

Look for the tanks that will fit then shop price. Many of the tanks have the same root or base numbers.

A tank might be T255 at vendor X, but is really mould 255. So, you google 255 and plastic tank.

Waste tank needs two vents for the lowest stink. Overboard toward the back; one each side. I am in an no discharge zone, so no drain is allowed, only a pumpout. So, we have waste in, waste dip tube pump out, cleanout, two vents. 5 holes I believe. I will double check for you. Water is fill and vent I think; need to buy one in about 2 months.

Fuel is sender, vent, fill, feed engine. Vent on mine is flush mount; must go overboard.

Just to add my understanding and my opinion on chase tubes in the hull. It's best to go through the middle of the stringer/frame. If the holes are big then reinforce the stringer at that point. Use generous bends or you will struggle to feed cables through. You can blow a pilot line through with an air pump if you attach it to some foam.

The DE23 is a big craft and you should be able to route many things through the gunwales. Do this where ever possible. I do not plan to put any under floor chases in my C17, except possibly a water pipe to drain the cabin.

I searched for tanks - fuel, water and waste but could not find them. For fuel I found one at a manufacturer in Italy but it's small, only 80 liters. The height of the stringer is only 8"!!!. I will make my self all three of the 2mm aluminum sheet.

Hello...I hope you are all well!
We haven't heard from each other in almost a year ... but you know I missed you.
I worked ... I had 2 jobs, the 2nd on the boat :), 2-4-6 hours / day, day by day! Until now i have around 800 hours work.
You have some photos.
All the best to you! Take care of yourself and yours, wear a mask and be careful not to reach 'oxygen' all at once. We have time ... at least to do it regularly.
