Making a molded coffin to rest the gas tank isolated from the bottom, not foamed only coal tar epoxy, slightly raised supported on the keel and the stringers (only for the gas tank). In the front a well insulated fish box and two support fiber channels to strengthen the hatch without flexing.All properly sanded for paint application

This paint is excellent and super strong. Tanks installed. The fish box will drain through a 1" hose with a valve on the bottom of the transom, not a pump.

Tomorrow I will continue, excuse my English, I do this in gratitude to all the people who have shared their work, I am not an expert, I just tried to build my long-awaited seacraft and although it was difficult to do all the work(solo-man project), I just really enjoyed it a lot
