Does anyone out there have a floorplan layout of the below deck arrangment of the three(3) fuel tanks, 2-saddle and 1 main, the fresh water tank and the waste holding tanks?
We are doing a major refit and finish on this 1998 38 Open and there is zero materials with the boat.
Thanks so much,
Jack

I don't have a layout but can guide you and send a sketch if that will help, I have a 1996 38 Open.
The water tank is right under the door to the forward berth. There is an access in the floor in front of the underberth dresser and the tank is set so the tank gage is visable through that access.
The sideboard tanks are outboard of the engines kinda centered.
The holding tank is forward of the starboard fuel tank.
The main tank is under the fighting deck centered and forward.
Hope this helps.
Luhrs should be able to provide a sketch.

I have a 2004 38 Open, and my layout is just a bit different.
First off, I have no gauge on my water tank.
Second, my holding tank is seated on top of the forward end of the starboard fuel tank, not forward of it.

John and Joe,
Thank you so much. She is almost complete.
This is a big help since we are upgrading most things.
Glad to see some "38'ers" other here.

Joe is correct the waste tank is on top and forward on the starboard fuel tank.
