Hey; another local!

You probably can, but it will be pricey. You'd have to cut away the deck, glass in some supports, mount the tank, plumb the tank, and re-do the deck.

How about putting smallish tanks in the console or/and seats?

I was hoping there was some sort of bladder solution. Not worth the hassle of cutting large sections in to the deck and weakening the structure. Currently the tanks live aft and was hoping to move some of the wieght forward.

Google fuel badders and you will find a lot of choices in the USA.
