[VAC] Black Water Tank Repaired
If you recall, two weeks ago I posted a request for information on a
replacement Black Water Tank for my 70 Caravel. Well the search did not
go well and the expense of replacement was not satisfactory. So I fixed
it myself. I sealed the cracks with a marine grade putty then encased
the entire tank in fiberglass and epoxy. It has been full of water for
a week now with no leaks. I even kicked it around a few times to ensure
its durability. Lets hope it holds. Those of you who wish to do the
same I will keep posted if it cracks or leaks again. This was
definitely the least expensive way to go.
