Does anyone have experience with these for gas on a Rib Outboard or even for transporting extra Diesel on longer cruises, I see some coming up for sale on surplus sites.

Roddie, I've not used flexible tanks for fuel but I do use them for water. I cannot completely empty the water tanks, I wind up with about a gallon in each one when the pump stops picking up. This appears to be the nature of the beast according to the manufacturer. I do hope this helps, Rich.

I use the Nauta tanks for water. They are french and I'm not a huge fan of those people but they do seem to work.

I have used bladders for water with good success. I was considering them to use as auxilary tanks for a Central American cruise, but I scrubbed the idea. I like the notion of using them a lot better than giving up a big chunk of storage you can use when you don't need 100 gallons of fuel.
