SunnyD,
Great progress!!

The bulkheads fore and aft sound fine, but what will the tank rest on?
Just the pvc running down the centerline?
I may have missed something.
I think there should be more support diverted to the stringers and not the hull.
I might run a couple supports between the stringers over the pvc to keep the tank off the hull.

Just my 2 cents.

Thanks Kedd,

The idea he mentioned is a 2 inch cut in half at the centerline (small center part of the tank sits on it) then two smaller pvc about 8-10 inches in from the stringers, all glassed over.  the tank would sit on the three pipes glassed over running fore and aft.  I still have about 2.5 inches on each side of the tank for expansion and on top.  My concern is the bulkheads the tank would sit between are snug.  It definetly won't move forward or aft, and the strap would keep it from moving up or side to side.  Although I don't think it would flex at all, I was just wondering if I should leave a little wiggle room at those bulkheads. :scratch:

Sounds good.
I would not leave any room fore and aft.
The top and bottom should be plently for the tank to expand.
I would have some kind of chafe guard between the fore and aft bulkhead and the tank though.
Also under the straps.

If your not going to use the coffin box.
What about cutting off the bottom and glasing it lower and to the stringers for support?
You would have no load on the hull that way.
Just a thought.

This is off the topic.
I just installed a new tank and if I could do it again I would check the tank for debris.
I would pull the sender and check it however you can.

I had metal shavings foul my flowscan sender from.
I figure from tapping.
No harm to the the motor because of the Racor filter after the sender but figured I'd pass it on.
I know your not using a metal tank but I'm sure the same thing could happen with debris.

That's exactly what i did! It's sitting real low. Your idea about chaffing prtection is being headed.

PS, I love this site precisely for this kind of advise. Thanks again Kidd

This is basically the plan I had.  I just found a tank that fit between my stringers(23") better than the coffin(20" on the inside) to allow for a better fit and lower mounting(it will be 4 inches off the bottom of the hull).  So basically I'll be glassing a "new" "coffin" just using the stringers as the sides and encapsulated ply as the bottom.  I have mixed feelings about making full depth bulkheads for and aft of the tank, but will work it out. SunnyD sorry I didn't respond earlier.

No worries, I have been as busy.  Concerning the bulkheads I agree, leaving the bottom open will allow for any residual water to travel toward the bilge area.

I may be selling this project.  It is in the same state as I left this thread.  It has been fully tarped and dry since I glassed the stringers.  I am unsure if I will be able to find the time to install the floor/deck.  It would come with tandem axle aluminum majik tilt trailer.  Still not absolute on a sale but if someone is interested please pm me.  I love the boat.  My kids are just at an age that seems to monopolize my time and money.

Might be interested in some parts off it.  Can you PM me and let me know what you still have?  Thanks.

Wannabe, I am in Atlanta and just bought a 22-2 CCP. Am interested in your hull and parts. Do you still have the boat?  Jeff
