Brief Description:  Sealed coverplate, pressure tested tank

After giving the tank several days to cure the rear baffle proseal, I decided to install the cover plate and pressure test the tank. Followed Van's instructions and raised the water level in the tube 2'3" to equal 1 pound of pressure. With the variable temps, the level rose several times but never fell. Overnight with a 20 degree temp drop, the level only dropped 4 inches. No bubbles on any seam or rivet line. So no leaks!!!!
