Well maybe this has been done before ,but i made a tank rack for my boat out of PVC tubing.
it took a little over an hour to put together and cost about $10 or so.
all that is left is way to stap it in place.
i will find out tomorrow how it holds up.

If you use sched 40, instead of 80, its tough stuff.

?????? Schedule 80 is twice as thick as 40???? I think you got that one reversed.

well it worked.
the tanks stayed in place and it held up.
if it last a year its worth the money.
i'm going to make up a couple more for my larger boat that will be custom fitted
p.s. i did use schedule 40

Yea, but slight problem...
He fitted them for his tanks, and mine have the slightly thicker boot
