Default Re: 89 23cc fuel tank

Les,
I've got a 1985 23' Scepter and anticipate that I will/should replace the original tank along with the engine. (The boat has benn out of the water and on the rack covered in a boat yard for 5 years.) The tank is 144 gal. by the spec. sheet that came with the boat.

I'm concerned about how to get it out, but after reading your comment it might be easier (not easy) than I thought. Trimming back the glass and lifting is all it took? I understand you had to put a lot of lift to it to do it, but you didn't have to pull or cut other pieces of cockpit sole?

Any comments/explanation would be appreciated. Thanks!

BigLew
