Sailor,
Thanks to your drawing I got my tank out. There was almost zero extra room but there was just enough to slide it out as planned. Of course when you undertake something like this, you find previous owners expert engineering skills. Under my tank I found a couple strips of what appeared to roofing shingles and some old caulk that looked like it was soaked in gasoline for way too long. It was a mess. The bed of fiberglass underneath tank has a crack in it lengthwise about 4 inches in from the stringer. It’s all the way through. I’m debating what to do about this. Do I just put a layer of glass on top of it? Just leave it? Cut the whole thing out? I don’t think it really supports the tank much as the tank seemed to be hanging from the mounting points. What do you guys think?
