[Rhodes22-list] Water Tank

[pdgrand at nospam.wmis.net]

Roger,

     I don't have a West Marine catalog although my BoatU.S. catalog shows 
the Todd Water Tanks on the same page but with different part numbers.  
However, right next to them on the page are Vetus Flexible Water Tanks.  Am 
I off base here or would another possible good solution be to buy an 
approptiately sized flexible water tank to fit inside our rubbermaid tubs?
