Fuel Tanks

I agree with Rich regarding black iron tanks, however be sure to paint the bottom of the interior, also. No matter how careful you are to exclude water in the fuel, you need only 1/16" to cause rust. I used to build steel boats and ABS and Lloyd''s both required this. If you can work it in, incorporate a small sump w/ a drain **** to collect the water.
