Where to buy a poly fuel tank

[bmwkiller]

I recently bought a '70 Bellboy, 19', with a bow mounted tank. It was some kind of metal (not aluminum), and rusted to the point of leaking. I need to replace it, and would prefer a polyethylene tank, but I'm having trouble finding anything shaped to mount in the bow. Everything is square or rectangular. Any suggestions on where to look?
Thanks.

Do a search for "bow mounted fuel tanks". I've seen them advertised so I know they are available.

Tried that.....got nothing but a bunch of hits on bow mounted trolling motors & gas cans. Tried it in quotes, got nothing at all.

bmwkiller, You can try the major manufacturers web sites such as Tempo and Todd. I have only seen 3 and maybe 6 gallon bow tanks. If you do not find what you want, you may end getting something custom made, which can be pricy. :^ I would work on a backup place for a rectangular tank, such as under the seats, under the splashwell etc.
