Special thanks to Jim for taking the time to give me the exact details on removing the tank and a plan for replacing the hoses.
I used my reel safety lines to pull tank, they clipped into the screw holes on the tabs perfectly.
Tank is out and the well is punky, rotted and soft in one corner, looks like cutting out the bottom base is the next step.
Found a ton of sawdust like material under the tank and also in the engine bilge coming out when blasting water thru the forward boxes back aft.

Any ideas where this came from? Anyone see this before?
