During my major overhaul I to removed the tank and had
it refurbished.  I had 2 problems to solve during this,
the first was to remove the copper vent line at the
rear of the tank, this was solved by cutting a hole in
the stbd bulkhead.  The second problem was lack of
lateral support at the rear of the tank, this did not
come to light untl heavy weather outside of New york
city.  Adding an isolated strap solved this problem but
was not easy to do with the engine in place.
