Thank you for all the advise. I'll be sure to try to seal the decks as you have advised. After the Trawlerfest I'll try to make specific measurements.
Be well and again, Thank you

Leaking fuel tanks

I will have to pump the remaining fuel into the other tank. Then I'll open it.
In the meantime, I'm open for suggestions

Leaking diesel fuel tanks

I have a 1992 Grand Banks 46 classic with a leaking fuel tank. I would be grateful for some advice on how to correct the problem. I believe the tanks are mild steel. Please help.
