Default 86 v20 fuel tank removal

well here are some photos of my 60 gal fuel tank removal, on my 86 v20 c/c.
i drained fuel, filled with water to remove gas vapors,let it fill for a while, left water in tank and with a pneumatic wheel cutter cut a slot, large enough to fit a steel bar inside tank, well that didnt work, it was lifting the boat off the trailer. so we drained the tank and cut off the entire top of tank and carefully cut holes into the floor of tank and placed the sling inside the hole and finally it was coming out.
