Freshwater tank

Anyone ever replace a freshwater tank in a older top gun. Filled mine today to test everything out and it appears to be leaking. How much of a b!tch is it to get it out?

Maybe Rotozip the top off of it and put a bladder inside old tank?

Are you sure it is leaking, or did it overflow out the vent? I've seen the latter happen.

I filled it til it came out the vent on the side of the boat and then noticed a lot of water coming out my drain hole in the back of the boat. Looked in the trap door and seems water is running out from under the tank. Ugh... It holds some. It's aluminum I wouldn't think it would have cracked. Might break out the bore scope and see what I can see.
