SUPER SIDE DECK TANKS 430 - 800 - 870 - 1250
Favourite of heavy displacement vessels for long voyages. Well suited to side deck of vessels with bulwarks. Cylinder shape will conform to available space and self-wedge between cabin and bulwark, gripping by friction. Deck width can be narrower than diameter of tanks. Diesel is gravity discharged to deck filler or to a below deck T. connection to filler pipe leading to main tanks. Alternatively, an inline 12-volt pump can transfer diesel. A ø1.5" PVC pipe on the deck in the corner under the tanks will drain any white water to deck scuppers. Tanks roll up for compact storage when empty. SOFT STRUCTURE WILL NOT DAMAGE BOAT!
SUPER SIDE DECK TANKS CROSSING OCEANS TOUGH RANGE EXTENDER

AROUND THE WORLD!
The first SUPER DECK TANKS were made in 1995 for Turtle-Pac’s owner yacht, to assist sailing around the world via the Trade Winds route, starting in Sydney. Ocean Strider completed the voyage in 5 years with stops in 240 ports in 35 countries. Two tanks were permanently on deck, exposed to tropical sun and Northern European winter weather. On ocean crossings the forward tank was washed over by waves during heavy weather. The Red Sea weather beat was made much easier by being able to refuel tanks underway. Both tanks arrived back in Australia in good shape and, despite losing their new look, functioning perfectly.
