Default Gas tank leaking on 1995 2300SC Cuddy

Any suggestions on how to remove the aluminum gas tank in the 2300SC? I can see about 6" of it from the engine compartment, but the balance is under the ski locker. Looks like an engine removal and hopefully slide it out.

Don welcome aboard.

I suspect the floor needs to be removed to get at the tank. It is screwed and foamed in place. Not a fun job but doable.

Not that I know of. The tank is almost 20 years old and it is not the first time I have heard of one leaking. To get more info I suggest you take a look at the bayliner site as several folks have do this job and documented it well with lots of pictures.
