Aquatic (K600) is being modified to use fixed thrusters and I am
considering adding saddle tanks but in addition to the fore/aft
tanks, not as replacements. However, I'm taking a very low tech,
low cost approach to the saddle tanks. Admittedly they will not
look as nice as fiberglassed custom fitted saddle tanks, but
functionally they will be just fine. I'm looking at adding either
785 lbs or 1130 lbs of buoyancy depending upon the diameter of the
saddle tanks I use.<br>

<div>Has anyone ever built a K-350 with fixed thrusters and
saddle tanks instead of fore and aft MBTs? I was thinking this
would improve stability, eliminate burping, give you a surface
to walk on, and give you visibility looking up from the front
viewport? Is there anything wrong with that idea that I am not
seeing?</div>
