Good luck - it's a sh!tty job, but worth it for sure.
Thanks, I have been looking through the posts there and on Classic Seacraft. I got the tank free and can lift it, but only so far. I need to remove more deck, and at this point it may as well all come up and lay down a new one. I may have to wait until I have some more time, and funds.
