Thread subject: Whaler Central - Boston Whaler Boat Information and Photos :: Removing gas tank deck cover. 2004, 240 outrage.

I have to remove my gas tank cover on a 2004, 240 Boston whaler. To do this I have to lift the center console which requires me to remove the bolts that mount the tee top to the deck. Problem, front mount bolts and nuts are not accessible from below. Apparently the tee top is bolted to the deck prior to being lifted and bonded to the hull and filled with foam.
Does anyone on this site have experience or knowledge of how this needs to be done? Boston whaler says I have to cut access holes into the inner hull to access this space. Lifting this gas tank cover it turning into a huge project! Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
