If fuel tank was replaced it should have a tag saying it is Coast Guard Complaint from fabricator.
Tank could very well have been made better...but without sticker or paperwork you may have an issue insuring.
If you do insure...fuel leaks insurance company may refuse claim based on non approved tank.
Interesting as it can be CG tagged, leak and claim paid...
Anyway, its something to consider...
Other then that, get cleaning and waxing, fill'er up and enjoy!

The dinette is built so the corner of the dinette is on top of the corner of the tank hatch. As a result the surveyor could not open up the tank hatch. He suspects that there is a tag on it but he could not get to it to verify.
I like the teak and swim platform! It's great that the hull is painted!
My fuel tank label is adjacent to the sender/pickups, but I don't know if there is a standard for placement. I love his comment about not using ethanol!
That looks pretty reasonable. What is wire in the upper part of the picture? Thru-hull transducer?
Yannis - it was open and foam is cheap. The idea was to add a little flotation and ride quality in that area, since we didn't have anything planned for outboard of the stringers. Closed cell foam. There are waterways built in to allow flow through the normal channels in the stringers

It is a mom and pop trailer dealer but they haul the trailers themselves (from the factory to their business) and it saves them at least a few hundred bucks a trailer. Plus is is a very low overhead type of operation. Professional and clean but not fancy. There is no customer service call center and you will only get un-sugar coated facts from them. Jodi runs the office and said their philosophy is: "were not trying to get rich on one trailer"
I am very satisfied with the trailer and the price was low. At least $1000 less than the boat broker for the same trailer. Again between Service, Quality and Price you only get to have 2. They will give you Quality and Price.
