Title: Aft water tank hold down
Post by: Noah on May 10, 2014, 10:47:08 PM
Does anyone have strapping or cleats holding their aft water tank in place in their Mark I? Or, are you content with just the hose connections to keep it in one place?

It's in there pretty snug.  3 sides supported by 3 or more inches of fiberglass and the forward section is against the plywood panel.  It's not going anywhere.  I wouldn't do anything different with it.

I think I will try and put a webbed strap over the top (like you would with a battery) just in case.

Noah : As Steve said - that aft water tank is captive and isn't going any place- even when it's empty.
