Default Cigarette Waste tank

Hi! I have a 1994 38' cigarette top gun. The waste tank in the bathroom has a hole in it. Any suggestions with replacing it/getting it out for repair. -Thanks- Joe

No easy way, its put in before the head and will not come out through the tray hole. Been there done that. I cut a hole in the side of the head to get it out. The up side is the OEM is still in business and all the parts are Jabsco/ITT.

You might be farther ahead to sawzall it and have someone build a replacement that goes back in throught the tray hole.

Look into the bladders that West Marine sells. They are collapsible bladder tanks that are actually rated for fuel or waste. If you can get the old tank out, you ought to be able to squeeze a bladder tank into its place.

I think a fair number of people have simply sawzalled the old tank into pieces and then used some of these tanks that Sydwayz is suggesting.

Best solution is to just buy a new boat....
