My mechanic got the old one out in 2 1/2 hours with the help of an engine hoist. Having a new one made locally in Reedville, VA. He put the hatch back and I gave her a quick coat of paint--want her to look half way decent with friends on board. I can fish while the tank is being built--have 20 gal tank in the forward locker. He also replaced the old drains with brass fitting and new hoses. He are a few pics.

On the issue of the drains, one thing I haven't heard anyone suggest/talk about. Go to ACE or HD or Wal-Mart or just about any hardware store and buy a set of grain strainers (the kind that fit into your sink drain at home) and put one in each of your drains. They have a large mesh screen and are perfect for catching fish scales, guts, twigs, and just about anything that would normally get caught in your drains. When they get clogged just pull them out and tap them upside down to get rid of the debris. Cheap fix to an old problem. THey look like this: https://www.walmart.com/ip/Peerless-...&wl13=&veh=sem
