- Island Gypsy 36 Europa 1984
Hi,
I was asked in another thread for pics of the approach I utilized during 2022 to replace the fuel tanks in my 1984 Island Gypsy 36 Europa.
Most seem to choose the "cut em out and put multiple smaller tanks in" approach. I choose to take the tanks out thru the sides of the hull.
The attached pdf is a summary of the project (which I already had handy). This is offered for those who may want to consider this as an alternative approach.

Any questions re more details, let me know. Fair warning, I have lots of pics to bore you with.
