PipeDreams, yes, the tank fill is pointing the wrong way & we'll have to loop the hose, but that'll work.

RockDoc, you're right, not much space to work! Used drummel tool to cut the underside skin, the aft half. Used 1/2" sealed wood, liquid nails on both sides of wood, then quickly supported bottom skin with pre-made grid system & added flat weights on top of cockpit floor putting pressure on both top & bottom skins. Added fiberglass stips over cut seam. Now she's rock solid.

This week we're putting all the 'pieces' back on.
Thank you for all your words of encouragement.
