have you tried to move some weight around in the boat to see what happens? It might be easier too relocate a pair a of batteries fwd of the tank, at roughly 70 lbs each, it would be like removing 20 gals of gas on the rear and placing it fwd of the tank, I don't have a CC, so i don't know where your batteries are now, but it sure would be a lot easier than moving the tank. I hate the idea of removing the liner, its not because of the job itself, its just that you usually uncover something that wouldn't have bothered you if you hadn't known about it. I've seen alot of projects abbandoned after removing the liner.
