mine is under half of the rear bench seat on my ScarabIII. if i remember my 260 had at least as much room under the bench. use a tank that is only half as big as that compartment so you still have storage there.

Thanks Glassdave. However i already have an icebox with refrig cooler under the back seat. Was thinking under floor somewhere or maybe under cushions up front? - I know it's meant to be sealed but wondering how large the space is up there..

adr612, If you replace your old tank, I would be interested in it. The tank from my boat is missing. All the lines are there, but someone took the tank out. 7L would be enough for me as often as we would use it. Let me know. Thanks, Dan

Hi Dan, I will keep that in mind, but it could be a long way to send it! - I am in Australia :-)

If you ever get a chance, snap me a picture of what it looks like. I can probably find something locally and make it work. Is there an electric pump that pumps the water up to the faucet? Under the sink I have a power wire, fill tube and hose to the sink. The tank and pump (if any) were removed. Dan

No probs - I won't be taking it out tho until I fit a larger one somewhere. Originally it had a simple manual hand pump but since I've added a self priming pump (which stops pumping when tap turned off) and it works fine.

Cheers, Andrew
