Replacing fuel tank

[JAMiller]

I have an 18 ft center console Sou Wester the precursor to Parker. I need install a new fuel tank. Has anyone tackled this project? Does the entire deck need to be removed or can I cut out the deck above the fuel tank? Anyone know where to purchase a new fuel tank? Any insight would be most appreciated

Enter tank in Search and start reading.

Open pie plate over fuel sender and look for tank data plate. Maybe RDS. Write down serial number and HIN contact RDS.

RDS made fuel tanks for Parker but several years ago switched to Florida tank

They will need the tank serial number and boat HIN to locate the drawings. Ask for stringer drawing too

Parker most likely will not have all of the drawings and may not be able to help

Check the Projects area and use the Search box for past projects
