Got a neighbor to help me lift it out if the boat, but got the tank on the deck by myself. However your fuel hatch may be shorter on your ‘72. But your tank may be shorter as well. Mine was 47 gallons.
This is exactly what I was figuring at first but then the more I looked at it the more it looked like there wasn’t enough room between the top of the tank and the bottom lip of the hatch to be able to get the front of the tank high enough to slide out of the hatch
