Thanks for the link to the photo Joe. The boat definitely does not still have the original mats. The tanks sit right on the deck.
Someone did a fairly nice job of installing the wooden frame countersinking the screw into the deck and filling the holes with wooden plugs.

I'm debating whether to put the Moeller tank right on the deck also or put some kind of map under it. I'm hoping some members that installed the Moeller tank will chime in. I'm also interested in what method they used to secure it.
