I would never put gasoline in a FRP tank unless said tank was specifically modern built for gasoline w/ ethanol.

You now own the Wendy C?  Put together a current set of good pictures showing everything and send to me..  You can post here too.. The was repowered/re-configured  2002 — 21+ yrs ago.

Coverting to gas? — Simple answer would be no for a variety of reasons with number one being safety. 

As to all the rest, makes no logical sense to me, but that me, not you………..Who is doing the overall engineering as to weight & balance along with everything else? That persons past track record in this type of work with this particular hull?
