Has anyone changed out the metal holding tank on subject model? Mine is corroding to pieces. The stern lazzerttes are very small, and I don't see how any human could get down there to work on the tank, or get a replacement through the opening. I would like to replace the metal holding tank with a plastic one but I can't figure out how to get the old metal one out, or get a new plastic one in and installed. Help! The fuel tank is plastic and appears to be fine. Why didn't Hunter use plastic for the holding tank? That is academic of course. What's done is done.

Replacing your metal holding tank

I have a 1994 Hunter 28 and recently had to replace my metal holding tank. Check the archives for articles on replacing holding tanks and suppliers. I used a hand held jig saw and cut the tank in half to get it through the aft hatch. I suggest making a cardboard box holding tank to make sure of the fit before ordering your new poly tank.Be sure to duct tape the end of all hoses when they are removed from your metal tank.
