Thanks, that's exactly what I ended up doing and I didn't even have to hack
into the tank as the sheet metal was held together with screws. I then only
had to get to 13 and 5/8 inches so that only required taking of about 1/8
inch from either side which had plenty of lip to spare. The new West Marine
is less tall and more stout, so it takes up a bit more room in the locker.
Sadly, I'm also less tall and more stout, so we are competing for space
when I squeeze down there (mainly to access the stuffing box).

Thanks,
