I agree this would be much better. However, if the designer suggested it, then we don't cross that path.

Mine has butt blocks on the two bottom panels. Not on the sides. The edges are tappered to allow the biax to lay nicely over the blocks.

Yes, fabric over the butt blocks. Butt blocks should have rounded edges so that the fabric lies easily over it.

Yup. Don't forget to vent it! Center it is best. Boats are all weight sensitive.
Re: HMD 21 starting - help
Yes, build a platform so it doe's not set on only the end points. That looks like a pretty nice tank.

Re: HMD 21 starting - help
There will be 2 of them. Second one for waste water. I plan to put them next to each other with a seperation. And there will be pumps close to the tanks.
For the bottom support here what i plan according to what i read on forum. Please advice, thank you.

Re: HMD 21 starting - help
Never have a board rest directly on the V. Do a support on either side of it. Or run a support underneath it glued to the hull sides.
Everything else sounds great.
