Well I finally figured out that my fresh water tank has a large hole
in it ( a very large hole) where can I find a replacement?

Thanks

If it's plastic, most likely HDPE, you can fix....if not, you can make your
own using the above material...Blair

get a plastic repair kit and repair it in place. I have a leister
Triac heat gun to do it but there are lots of other ways to repair it.

Plastic welding is not that difficult and sure to be cheaper than a
new tank. I've fixed many a broken waste tank with epoxy. I'd
consider both those options before replacement.

Why remove the tank unless it is in a position you cant get to? The
less you move the less work it will be. Some of the water tanks are
an unusual shape and not that easy to remove. Just a suggestion but
if the break or hole is 3" or less and on the top of the tank why not
make an inspection port out of it? You can buy the kits from West Marine.
