Fuel tanks?

[Ambition ll]

We presently own a 88 Californian 55.
The broker told us it has 3 tanks. But does not know how many gl each hold. Total is 620 gl.
Can someone answer?

Silly question...but, are they all the same size?

If they are each more or less a rectangular box, measure and multiply the length, width and height in inches, and then divide that number by 231 to determine gallons.

I know this is an older post but my 1991 55 CPMY has a 400 gal. tank in the lazarette and a 265 tank that runs under the master bed all the way up and under the middle berth. How do I know? Well, that one leaked and I had to replace it. The 265 was optional. There is one that is smaller or maybe non-existent as my documentation mentions the optional 265.
