Hello everyone, I have a F26 Tigercat, love the boat have not had any problems with it at all, contrary to what other forums have said. My questions are,

1. Anyone know why Grady installed the fuel tanks just below the floor, verus down in the hulls more? The lower the tank, it would give you more stability.
2. Is there foam under the tanks between the bottom of the tank and the hull?
3. Does anyone know someone who built these that I could ask these questions to?
4. Does anyone have parts for these boats, I am looking for a anchor pulpit, and the simulated wood grain switch panel as well.

The reason for the questions is I am considering pulling the tanks(100gal ea) and have large ones made up to 130 gallons. I live on the west coast of florida and want to run father out in the gulf.

Thanks everyone for yr help!!!
 
Grady would be the people to talk to about the placement of the tank, larger tanks, etc. Tank manufacturers don't build the boats - they only build it to Grady's specs and ship it to them.
