So I am getting ready to install a plastic tank under the deck. My bookmark for the rules is broken. Can anyone suggest a page for current rules and tips and tricks? It's a new Moeller Ft-5056 that I'm installing.

I remember don't just (expanding) foam it in, but it needs softer foam to rest on, I think, and dual hose clamps, but I don't want to mess this up.

Thanks!

Hours after my last post on this topic, I found out the apartment I was living was being sold.


So now I have a house, land, shed and heated garage not that far from Newburyport. Change for the better, but a busy year.


I just bought a lot of teak for a swim platform for the 25'. Still have to install the tank, too.



Does anyone have plans or pics for a swim platform for a 25'? I got a deal on some teak I coudln't pass up. It is old ship decking. Maybe 80-90 years old, plus some nice stuff for the interior trim.

Dang!
After buying the house/land/shed/garage near Newburyport how did you have any money left over for the teak?!

I live on the Cape, and have friends and a sister in-law in Ipswich and Byfield respectively. Aint cheap in these parts...
Maybe Newburyport Kansas?



Congrats regardless.

Newburyport is a beautiful area ! My brother has a home out on Plum island . Try to get up once or twice a year to fish for strippers. Great area for boating and overnighting on the fiver

I said "not that far from Newburyport"!!! Definitely not "in"!!! It gets cheap(er) out in the sticks 15 miles away.



A government worker on furlough was selling some. He had loads of teak, some reclaimed, some new.
