I cleaned and cleaned and cleaned. When I thought I was finished, I cleaned some more. My poor girl had "sand in the pants ((fuel tank)". Cleaned the tank and removed the deck cover over the fish locker. I think I heard the boat say thanks. What I thought was a compromised deck for the fish locker was old leaves over thirty five years in the seam. Some one left the drain plug in too long over several seasons and leaves collected. That old boat stood the test of time and deserves cleaning. She weathered it well.
