Testing tanks
We are getting closer to buying our boat and with the concerns raised on this forum and others regarding the difficulty accessing some tanks is there any way to test them in place other than filling them. Any tips or suggestions regarding inspection protocol around tank locations?

Re: Testing tanks
Use the dinghy air pump and no more than a few of inches HG, like maybe 4" max.
