Will,
If you still have this available could you please let me have further details - considering fitting a bow tank to my Ring 18 and funny feeling Freedom beat me to the last one that was advertised on here

Would prefer a full package if possible. I am particularly interested in the size of the tank as I have a forward mounted fuel tank already fitted so space is at a premium.

It's a tapered tank so you should be able to get it right up the front.
I'll take some pics and get some measurements for you this weekend as i keep my boat in the lakes and I live and work in Manchester.

I'll get all the anciliaries together too and see if i'm missing anything.
Obviously the emptying pipe and valve stayed with the boat as they were fixed. I definitely have the pick up though and the control cable so you should only need the pipes to rig it up.

I'll let you have pics and sizes etc on Monday.

Thats great Will,

I am actually offshore at the moment (Mozambique ) so wont be back in UK before end of April time(ish) so no immediate rush.

If you can let me have the details when you have time it would be great.

Got an PM from Phantom19 to say that he thought the rig was sold, then later received an email from a private account giving me further details. Unfortuantely I was away at work at the time so didnt get chance to respond until around about a week later.

Didnt get any further reply and the next thing I saw your mail saying you had spent a considerable amount under your deck fitting a new bow tank. Typically I put 2 and 2 together and obviously got 5!!!!!

Hopefully might have better luck this time

How did your rig up go - any major difficulties?? Could you post some photos if you have time

yea will do
jus waiting for a water outlet fitting for the breather and trying to source and appropriate ball valve for the dump
bow tanks all fitter as ist the pickup, pipes etc
basically took the original fuel tank out last year
then fiberglassed to bits of wood at the top to hold the tank steady and screwed the back into the last piece off wood origianlly holding the fuel tank (hope your following)
thas pretty much as far as ive got,
