aluminum tanks are the best option - your area,best is patriot marine,waretown nj 609-653-5542 ...drop off the old tank,and about a week later,pick up new.

be smart: clean,scuff sand,chemically etch prime and epoxy coat the tank...

aluminum tanks are measured in "thickness" - look on "build sticker" - odds are the tank says .0125 - 1/8" never heard of "guage"
