Cut the hole bigger than tank, to the center of stringers so you'll have something to attach new deck to

I redid a 94 2520 with 300 yami. It's lighter than original 225 that came off of it. Modified V not really suited for offshore, but I use mine on a river. Usual tank (for outboards) was 126gal. To replace measure to stringers from inspection ports. Add 3/4 or 1 inch on each side, pop a line...
