Fuel polishing, diesel tank cleaning in RI?

Anyone know of a good outfit to polish about 100 gallons of fuel and clean out the sludge in the bottom of the tank?

Mike;
that was me at the fuel dock the other day at Pt. Judith marina in small r/v. Looked like you weren't having fun, so I left it at Hi!

Oldport Marine Services in Newport has a setup to do it. I would think RI engine would have something.
We had that problem 2 years ago and we made up our own with a large racor type filter and pump. It filtered the fuel but the tank was so dirty it was tough to get all the crud from behind the baffles.

I realized it was you after you pulled away.

We'll catch up some other time; we're at Lockwood's this season instead of SCM

Boat is probably going to take a week or so to fix, so it'll be a while before I get back up there.
