When fitting out 11 years ago, we thought that stainless steel, best grade, was the best for our sewage. On a sail to Tunisia we discovered a leakage, from the air ventilator. It had just disintegrated. Further examination of the tank showed corrotion and a multiple of leakages, specially in the area of sewage/air.
Last year we made a new tank in glassfibre with several coats of expoxy inside. However, the tank was made in two parts and glassfibered together. Probably the seam was not properly covered by exposy. Now we start to feel that nasty odour.
We've heard from other sailors that its possible to get tanks, "welded" as oneoff, in polypropylen, that should sustain the aggressive fumes.
Any advice on how to proceed, is much welcomed /forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif
