does anyone know where to buy plastic ballast tanks instead of the "bag" type. I want something that I can perminantly install in my ski locker. any ideas?

why? a ski locker bag would provide more actual ballast, cost less and take less time to install.

Call Boyds Equipment in Texas, they sell water tanks 806-356-9102, they might have something you could adapt.

If you are looking or plastic /Poly tanks, do "GOOGLE" for "RV water tanks". There are dozens of different sizes. Many places also can custom make one to your exact measurments, but those are much more expensive.

Here is a link to a site I found a while back. Never ordered any cause I would need a big tank for my boat.

I have two tanks covered with carpet and the drain pumps and mounts already installed. They are out of a 2001 mastercraft xstar and have been used only a couple of times because I created my own ballast system. I am moving and would like to get rid of them. email me if interested. $100 plus shipping
