Default Fuel Tank Fabricator in the Carolinas

Just pulled the 150 gallon main tank out of my boat and am looking for a new aluminum tank. I am in the Charleston area but anywhere in the Carolinas would be fine. Any reccomendations?

I have used Atlantic Welding in New Jersey twice now only to find out at a recent boat show these guys make tanks nearby.

Het that's the same people I was going to recommend. They (Randy) did a repair job on my hardtop and it was topnotch and fairly priced.

That's who I was going to say. I live right don the road from then and I know Randy personally. They do most of our metal fabrication. Especially tow posts.

You may want to check with RDS Aluminum in Perry, FL* 850-584-6898

They (along with Florida Marine Tank) do most of the OEMs...if they have your plans they can make you a replacement that will drop right in.* I had to replace the tank in an older Grady and once ordered, it arrived via UPS 9 days later and fit perfectly.
