225 Explorer fuel tank strap cutting into poly tank

Thanks Capt. Bob!  Two pictures prior in thread showing damage done and last picture showing position of strap causing damage prior to my removal. Thanks for the support too! My current goal is to siphon tank, move tank back 1 cm or so and replace improved strap. My first problem is I can't get the siphon to work. (Hate working with gas!), second is the "laceration" in the tank a concern? Thanks for any replies.

Bingo!

Give that man a cigar.

This is the first poly I can remember that has been damaged by the install.

Good luck and keep posting.
