I have a 74 kona jetboat and I would like to know of a place (or places) to possibly get side tanks installed on this boat and remove the bow tanks....
Thank you

cyclone..
Who made the tanks for you? The ones I have I think they are a bit too big and might need to be modified. If I knew they would fit I could fiberglass them in.

I have put in 3 sets of tanks. Imco made 2 sets. One for 23' Sleekcraft (2-26gal)and 21' Howard
(2-45 gal). The hardest part is making the bulkheads for each end. The third set I put in an 18' tunnel. Let me know, and I would be glad to help. Where are you located?

I am in the Temecula/Corona area. I have two tanks that were given to me but I think they are a bit too big... I will have to take some time to measure them but intially they look too big.. the reaosn for a ll the trouble is by bow tank is full of rust so firguring I would gain a bit of performance by removing the bow tank and putting side tanks in instead of R&R the bow one.
thanks

Cougar- the tanks were original ones that came in my Rogers. i dont know the make but they where rectangle shaped with two aluminum l-brackets that i simply fiberglassed over into the sides of the boat. That's how they came from Rogers and when i redid the gel coat, i cut them out and then 'glassed them back into the boat.
