On this episode of Sailing Vessel Triteia I attempt to remove the fuel tank. The intake fitting was put on after the tank was installed and unfortunately the fitting is made of steel and the tank is made of aluminum so galvanic corrosion had done its job and completely fused the two dissimilar metals together. I tried to get the fitting off several times with no luck and in this video you will see my third and final attempt. I was weary about cutting to much off because I wanted enough metal for the hose clamps to be able to their job, all of this made for a frustrating day but in the end I got the job done.
Alberg 30’s have long been known and respected as blue water boats, from Yves Gelinas’ Jean-Du-Sud to being featured in John Vigor’s “Twenty Small Sailboats to Take You Anywhere”. Now I am the proud owner of Hull #55! Come along with me as I refit her and take her sailing in preparation for my circumnavigation in a few years time!
