I need to replace the holding tank of my F30. The original tank was
made by Todd plastics but they do not stock the tank anymore, nor do
they have its specifications. Freedom yachts also do not have a
solution. Has anyone got any ideas?

Try ronco plastics. They make a very wide array of holding tanks.

Ardemco is also another source for tanks. Speaking of Ronco, if you’re in a location where you can pay cash and pick-up yourself, they will give a deep discount. Talk to the manager…Pawoksen5 <awoksen5@…> wrote:

A couple of years ago my 25 gallon Al holding tank in
my F32 developed leaks and I had to replace it.
Basically I studied every online tank catalog before
settling on an Ocean Link, Inc. 25 gallon portside
tank which I had to glass in supporting 2X4’s in order
to install it. My situation may be a bit unique as the
forward cabin has a single port side berth. The
essential part of the operation is making careful
measurements and study all available tank catalogs. By
the way I replaced Al by plastic.

If I may weigh in with our plan to solve the holding tank problem for our F32, we’ve decided to scrap the tank and get a Lectra-San(sp?) instead. The reasoning being that the current 12-gallon tank is not sufficient for living onboard on a mooring/anchor. A larger tank, if we could even find a place to put it, would still have to be pumped out frequently or require a trip into waters where dumping is allowed regardless of conditions. While the Lectra-San takes about 4-5 amp hours a flush, we feel the tradeoff against the maintenance of the waste tank makes it worthwhile.
If there are any among you who have a differing opinion, please chime in. We learned a long time ago about the infallibility of our decision process and experience trumps conjecture every time.

I should have added that in our case a holding tank is
the only legal option. Great Lakes.
