Actually, Not so...I have an original 1977 Potter (23' Sceptre) with a "foamed in" gas tank from the factory. We bought this boat brand new in April 1977. I had to replace the original tank in 2009 and it was DEFINATELY foamed in. I cut it out of the foam myself, and yes that is where the leak was due to corrosion from the salt water being held to the tank by the foam.
