Boat Tanks

The B278 closes out the small end of Ronco's marine water line: a 10 gallon molding shipped bare, no fittings. Ten gallons is the honest day-boat number - drinks, dishes, and a rinse for the crew -...

Most 17-gallon tanks sprawl; the B359 stacks. At 19.75 x 15.75 x 14 inches it is nearly as tall as it is wide - a deep, compact molding for the vertical spaces boats actually have in abundance:...

Not every 15 gallon tank is the same 15 gallons. The Ronco Plastics B492 shapes its capacity into a different footprint than its same-size siblings, which is the quiet genius of a catalog this deep:...

The B560 is 10 gallons in an 18 x 12 x 12 inch package - small enough to carry aboard in one hand at 14 lb, big enough to matter. Ten gallons is a weekend of drinking and cooking water for two, or...

Ronco molds several 16-gallon marine tanks, and the differences between them are the catalog's quiet genius - each is a different shape for a different hole in a different boat. The B107 is one of...

The B109 answers a simple question: what is the least tank that still does the job? Sixteen gallons of fresh water in a blank weighing 21 lb - light enough to hand up through a hatch, sized for...

Somewhere between the light 16-gallon blanks and the armored ones sits the B122: 27 lb empty, a middle-weight build of a middle-size marine water tank. It is the sensible default of the family - more...

Nine gallons, 16 x 14 x 10 inches, 12 lb empty. The B132 is nearly the smallest dual-role tank Ronco molds, and small is its entire argument: it fits under a v-berth step, behind a console, in the...

Some tank bays are just a cube of leftover air, and the Ronco Plastics B159 is shaped for them: 18 gallons in a compact 20 x 17 x 13 inch block, shipping at just 20 lb. It is part of Ronco's marine...

The Ronco Plastics B173 is the tank for boats where 15 gallons is the right answer: dinghies with cabins, small sailboats stepping up from carry-on jugs, compact campers that want plumbing without...

Ten gallons is the most honest capacity in the marine catalog. It is a day tank: rinse water for a dive boat, galley supply for a daysailer, or a compact holding tank that keeps a small boat legal in...

Seventeen gallons at 20 lb - pound for pound, the B226 is one of the lightest ways into a real marine fresh water system. Tanks in this class often end up in boats making the jump from portable jugs...
