Our bow tank was a custom build because it was cheaper than having Kracor
set up the jigs to make a new batch. It has no baffles, which means it is
held in place by stringers across the top. It also has no bolts to leak,
which is good as it is now a black water tank. Unless it's really large, do

The tank is not a triangle, the top is a rectangle and the bottom has angles to
match the hull. One compartment forward of that is a small space that would fit
a triangle.
Getting the 101 nuts off now to open it up and see what I have.

The tank on my 34 was a holding tank; Ronco B486
Ronco has a variety of different shaped tanks. It is time-consuming to look at
them all, however. It helps to have a size range, which narrows the search
considerably.

My 34 had a triangular plastic tank in the bow, which I replaced. Although it
was an unusual shape, Ronco had a nearly perfect replacement.

Joe,
Touche' does not have a tank in the bow. That area is pretty much open
with no structure forward of the V-Berth step other than the anchor locker
bulkhead. Suspect the tank is not structural.
Touche's water tank was under the aft seat of the dinette forward of the
half bulkhead. It may ha
We have a tank in the bow of our 37+. Not looking forward to replacing that
one 😆

It is fiberglass and not a rectangle. The only way to replace it would be a
custom-made tank.

Joe, what material is your tank? Most tanks I've seen are one piece molded
plastic or fiberglass; if it's aluminum, it might be easier to pull it out and
replace with a new plastic one...?

The tank is in my driveway right now, so I really hope it wasn’t part of the
hull!
It has a baffle that is a piece of plastic that slides into grooved wood
supports. Those supports are bolted through the side of the tank and those
bolts now leak. Also 50 years in a water tank has gotten to the w
Hi Joe,
It sounds like your tank is an integral part of the hull. Both my LF38 &
LF39 and my Sabre have plastic tanks in the bow. When I bought the 38
someone had put in a bladder tank. O removed it and put in a plastic tank.
Not horribly difficult.

Anyone else have a water tank in the bow?
Mine is leaking, the bolts through the side of it leak and the wood that holds
the internal baffle that the bolts are there for is coming apart.
Now I need to get the 120 or so bolts off the top to fix it.
