Forty-five gallons at a 46 lb shipping weight makes the B452 one of the best capacity-to-carry-weight ratios in Ronco's marine series - a genuinely large water tank that one installer can still walk down a dock and lower into a lazarette without a crane or a second pair of hands. For sailboat refits where the tank must pass through a companionway, that matters as much as the gallons.
The shell is dual-role like all its B-series siblings: fresh water when ordered with potable fittings, gray/black waste holding when ordered with sanitation fittings. Ronco installs the fittings per order at your marked positions, spin-welded or threaded. Print the drawing below, mark it against your actual hose runs and vent path, and use the on-page fitting planner to finalize the sizes.
The weight arrives with the water: about 375 lb at full, so the mounting platform carries the real load. Rotomolded in Tustin, California, where Ronco has made tanks since 1974. Compare the heavier-walled tanks near this capacity in the boat tank category, or browse the complete line on the Ronco Plastics hub. OneSource Plastics is an authorized Ronco Plastics dealer.
