Inspection hatches really are worth it if there's any way you can fit one.
Is there no way you can even reach the top surface of the tank to cut a hole? Obviously take all the necessary precautions to ensure cutting into the tank doesn't make it go bang.
Mine was built with one, but when I looked into it, it turned out they'd used a cover for an emergency tiller from Solimar as the inspection hatch. Works though.
'Fraid not. It's tucked away under the deck with about 2" clearance.
As an aside, I was informed today that Tampons are perfect for absorbing water. I think I shall give it a try, but not looking forward to going to the checkout at Boots..........
Got all the new filters, plus a length of new fuel line. Hopefully the wind will have eased tomorrow and I can get to the boat. Not a good forecast for later in the week
