Favourite of heavy displacement vessels for long voyages.
Well suited to side deck of vessels with bulwarks. Cylinder shape will confirm to available space and self-wedge between cabin and bulwark, gripping by friction. Deck width can be narrower than the 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 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. |
