Re: S362 questions on water tanks and mast j-hook
That¡¯s a great idea Dave. ?As we all know it isn¡¯t really about how much water the tank holds but more about the "useable" amount of water it holds. ?
On a slightly different note something we have always done on all of our boats is we make an attachment of a piece of semi-flexible hose, usually about 1¡¯ length to an on/off valve. ?We store it in the pocket on inside the lazzarette lid. We don¡¯t really like to put a dirty hose into our fuel fill nor do we enjoy holding the hose to fill two tanks of water. This allows ups to put something into the fill that will stay there during the filling and we don¡¯t have to hold it in place, but it is clean. ?
We use something like this. ?It is semi flexible but rigid enough to keep it in the fill hole. We attach the valve to the hose ending. ?I forget if we use extra bits to make it match up. ?I would have to look at it.

Re: S362 questions on water tanks and mast j-hook
Edit to above post:
?
I never was really good at math. ?I believe the post tank is 29 gallons, the bow tank is 49 gallons, for a total of 78 gallons.
?
Also, when not racing, I keep the bow tank filled, and draw from the port tank first. ?The extra weight in the bow helps keep the stern a bit higher,
and avoids marine growth above the waterline in the stern.

I found water and holding tank gaskets at my local hardware store. They are a 3-1/2" i.d. what I didn't realize was pump out, water, and fuel are all different sizes.?

I have about a dozen go-to suppliers mostly from suggestions on this forum. For me, Grainger's niche is fairly routine items, but items where I need to match sizes, threads, materials, etc.. I have a few locations between me and the boat where I can pick up orders. Their website is very detailed on specs, and it shows availability, usually same day or next morning pick-up.
