So the thought is to delete the tank and the transfer pump panel, which obscures the generator, and tap the latter, and the Planar diesel heater, into the main diesel tank. Yes, I lose 30 gal. of available diesel I might want on remote away passages, and yes, it messes with my consumption numbers, but I decrease complication and gain access to the steering gear and trim tabs, plus lose 120 kg/250 lb. of deadweight aft. I believe later editions don't have an aux. tank in the first place. Thoughts, please.
