I have purchased kracor water tank inspection ports like you show at
https://marine-outfitters.com/ Make sure if get a cap you get a gasket too.
Or just a gasket and use your existing cap. I think I called them.

Bruce, I had a similar issue with water leaking from the inspection port cover.
I purchased some "X" Profile O-rings from Mcmaster.com. This style O ring gives
you double protection against possible leaks because there are two areas where
the O ring makes contact with the tank and cover.

I found a 3" O ring at a non-marine store in Vancouver many years ago.
cannot remember where. Kracor, who made my tanks has them in their
catalogue.

Curious why you would care if the tank leaked at the top of the tank. All of
the water is of full use. Fresh water in the bilge.
I assume you aren’t taking water in from the fill points, so you are not
sinking!
I have a similar (possibly the same) problem (and many others) so I wonder why

Hello all,
I have a water tank inspection cap that is leaking when the tank is full, and
the DPO thought it a good idea to apply silicone sealer to all the o-rings on
all 5 caps> He also applied silicone sealer to nearly every exterior nut, bolt
and screw, but that's another story. Ugh...
