Default Re: Gas tank installation question

I am no pro but from what I have seen on this site and the people I have spoken to on installing my tank there has to be something between the two. For one you have to have it supported and two you will wear the tank out or your hull. Fiberglass will eat through the aluminun where they rub together is what I have been told. From everything I have seen there is supports fibeglassed in and then a rubber "absorber" between the tank and supports, then braced or secured to the stringers or a brace between the stringers. Hope this is what you were looking for.
