Linus,
After this initial purge the tanks should stay fairly clean while you’re using & refilling the water regularly. An occasional bleach shock treatment inside the tanks – I use a bleach/water mix in a small spray bottle to reach up to the higher sections – followed by a very thorough rinse before refilling, is a good habit to develop. Most of all, if/when you store the boat or just leave her for long periods, empty and towel-dry the tanks. Ideally, leave the inspection ports open during storage, too. It was surely long-term sitting water that fouled your tanks and mine.

Good habiits are not one of my strong points, but after the boss saw the inside of the tanks I think she will give some xtra help in remembering your ideas. Let me know when you are headed north. It would be great to meet you in person.
