Can't get a new fuel tank?

[goliath]

I used to have a Scepter transom mounted marine fuel tank, but sold it with my old Mercury engine. I recently got tired of my trolling motor and got another 8hp Mercury, but I'm trying to get another transom mounted fuel tank. West Marine doesn't have them, Ebay or Amazon doesn't list them... I found one for sale, but it's in the UK- I'm in the USA- and would probably be prohibitively expensive to ship.

I've been scouring the internet trying to find a seller, to no avail. Anyone out there know where to get one?

My SRIB is a Genmar by Zodiac 310 w/8hp Mercury 2 stroke.

An 8hp outboard uses so little fuel I am wondering why you need such a big tank. My 9.8hp 2 stroke with a normal 12 ltr tank will easily do a whole days outing.

If 12 ltr is not enough have 2 x 12 for versatility.

Having all the fuel weight at the rear is also not the best idea

Apologies, I can't help with a supplier, but I've seen a couple of these and initially thought what a great, tidy, solution they are.
But on consideration I ended up with the same conclusion as Easedalenovice.

12l fuel = @12kgs of weight, and there are far better places to add that weight to a SIB or small RIB than right at the transom.
