That looks like it will fit nice.
There is also a guy in NJ that will make a custom tank to your unique dimensions. You just send him a drawing. He advertises in "The Fisherman" magazine. I can send you the details tonight.

Kevin,
Try the hand saw trick. Firmly, but gently push it in and follow the contour of the tank. Short up and down strokes until you get all the way around it. It may loosen up enough foam to get the tank out.

One more thing - seal up the hose connections because there will be foam pieces everywhere and you don't want that stuff getting in the fuel hoses.
here are some of my before and after pics:

I used an old dull cross cut wood saw (hand saw) It was able to be stabbed into the foam and I could cut large wedges out until I got close to the tank and / or the bilge. Then it was scrapers and putty knives all the way.
Kevin,
I am away tomorrow - but I will be back by Friday afternoon...
Stripers up here need to be 28" minimum in CT and RI with a 2 fish limit. CT had messed with slot limits a few years back, 2 -fish limit with 1 between 28" and 40 " and the other greater than 40". I think NY still has something similar. I wish NY, CT and RI would all have one requirement. I...
The blackfish was 17.9 # as reported in this weeks Fisherman Magazine. There was also an article about toggin and it mentioned using a soft bait like squid on the top hook and traditional crabs on the bottom. The soft bait can pick up seabass if they are in the area.

Here was my day on the water. We were ultimately trying for the last of the fluke before the season closes in 3 days. We got a mix of porgys, seabass and one short but transparent fluke. My kids had a good time - just in time to start school in two days.
Carl
Awesome.
It's amazing when and where they can fall asleep. My youngest fell asleep for a little while yesterday too on the ride up into the inlet towards the marina.

Kevin is right - no red hair here. Dark with some gray thrown in. I was out with my two kids and my wife. There were a lot of boats out yesterday. We were there until almost 1pm also. We will have to set up a vhf channnel for monitoring V-20s in the area.
