Default Installing 2- 250 gallon fuel tanks 31 Catamaran- AZ.

Can anyone here recommend a shop in the arizona area that can install 2 fuel tanks one in each sponson/hull
I need a shop or individual that knows how to install these and someone with experience will know the best location and place to put these tanks, I hear it is best to have them around the cockpit area and not too far forward. $$$ Please send message or reply here

over four thousand pounds of fuel in a thirty one? . . . . . . . . is there even room on a 31? thats almost five fifty five gallon drums per side . . . . maybe just cap the sponsons off at the floor and fill 'er up



I would check with Team Archer Marine in Costa Mesa if thats not to far for ya, lots of experience and talent there . . . .

Actually 500 gallons is 3000 pounds not 4000 but yes it is alot of weight.I could do with just 400 gallons or 2400 lbs of fuel but it is not for pablo or his friends it is to move the boat a long distance and it is cheaper to move the boat this way with other extra tanks, to send it by traditional shipping with the goverment taxes included when it arrives would be over 25k

Now I'm intrigued. Where are you trying to go? Sounds like it must be a pretty serious trip.
