Tank Cleaning Bavaria 37 Sailboat – Dronten
In Dronten, we serviced a Bavaria 37 sailboat whose engine was no longer running reliably. The owner noticed that the fuel was becoming cloudy and that filters were clogging frequently. These are typical signs of contamination in the diesel tank, often caused by water and diesel bacteria.
Work Performed
- Diesel filtration: The existing diesel was fully purified and filtered.
- Installation of a service hatch: A service hatch was added to make the inside of the tank accessible for brushing and vacuum cleaning. This also makes future tank maintenance much easier for the owner.
- Diesel tank cleaning: The tank was thoroughly and manually cleaned. All contamination was removed.
- Inspection: Because we installed an inspection hatch, we were able to visually check the tank and confirm it was “demonstrably clean”
Result
The fuel was once again clear and free of water and debris. The tank is demonstrably clean. Thanks to the newly installed service hatch, the owner can now easily inspect and maintain the tank in the future. The owner can sail safely and without worries again.
