Metal holding tanks WILL leak. No idea why anyone ever used them.
I would seriously consider getting a composting head. It would be a lot less 
money and disruption. Speaking of disruption, I am not sure of your access, but 
Grand Banks fuel tanks are installed early in the build and do not fit out of 
any hatch. The usual way to remove them is to cut them up into pieces.

Subject: [EXTERNAL] Stus-List 37/40+ holding tank

Hi guys, I'm trying to work towards getting the boat ready for a trip south 
starting summer 2020 and one of the big things on my mind is the original 
aluminum holding tank, which I'm told will eventually start leaking and get a 
new plastic one in there, problem is getting it out, short story: friend with 
same boat, he and the marine yard decided there was absolutely no way it was 
coming out, cut the plastic vanity, replaced with a nice teak strip to hide 
cut, looks great, $3500 and that was 5 years ago. Without taking everything 
apart I'm looking at it saying but it looks like it might fit. Question to any 
owners: has anyone seen this done, can anyone say it will absolutely fit with 
making cuts, before I start taking things apart, I know it's been discussed on 
here before but I'm hoping to find a definitive yes or no, thanx guys.
