This was the process of how I made my Kevlar, under floor fuel tanks for the Tremlett.

I shot the video about 8 months ago when I made them and have used them in the boat ever since with great results. The baffles run horizontally, half way up the tanks with the corners cut away so the fuel can weir between the layers. This allows the fuel to move around freely as the boat moves without any slow surging from one area to the next meaning it balances very well. The tanks are joined via a 38mm filler hose at the base of the tank rears and vented via breather hoses at the front.

The tank capacity totals 60L between the two tanks. The fuel is filtered through a sock filter on the in-tank pickup and also an external spin on fuel filter.

The tanks are pinched in place via neoprene rubber between the hull and the floor of the boat meaning that when the floor is up you can move the tanks backwards and forwards to adjust the balance of the boat.

You can find me at all the places below for more info.
