I have a 75 palm beach with one tank. I am almost certain there is no larger capacity tank available, unless it is something you build or figure out on your own. I think it was discussed you cannot make one out of aluminum, it has been tried, and it will not last. I am not sure about stainless steel. The one I have seen was plywood/epoxy.

I also have a problem with Black tank capacity and always looking for better solutions. I replaced my black tank with a new tank that was to be an exact fit. It went in perfect, but even though I have not tested it, I think it is less capacity then the original.

I personally do not have a problem with the black tank capacity, other then the fact that i now know I have more fresh water then black tank capacity. I have not had a tank capacity problem by myself, with showering daily, going for 3-4 days. But I have short hair, and do not need alot of water to shower, and i do not create alot of dishes, and can pee on trees. But I have a wife and 2 young daughters that have to use the coach as well, and they can fill that black tank up in a weekend trip.

I have a macerator, and my current dealings is to plan for dumping the tank depending on how many showers the kids take. I have to constantly monitor how much water we are using.

when I have time(might be a while), I do plan on adding the drain to the ground for the shower, as well as I plan on putting in an outside shower as well. I have also been looking at mounting an backup tank, or secondary tank.
