Risk of water ingress on Pogo 10.50

[Olivier (Largo)]

On the 10.50, there’s a major design problem with the diesel tank that can lead to major water ingress. In our case, it was just a leak, about 2 liters of water per 24 hours.

There’s no longitudinal restraint, and if the tank slips between the side straps, it hits the toilet water inlet valve and grommet.

We eliminated the risk by placing a wedge in front of the tank to create a stop.

Hello Olivier,

Thanks for the info, I’ll have a look at mine! A priori, the tank is well fixed, I’ve never managed to find an NKE cover that has slipped underneath. But two precautions are better than one!
