Hi, Jim - to remove the tank, pull the screws and remove the bunk board over 
the tank.  You can then remove the fill and vent hoses; you should then be able 
to lift the tank slightly to get at the outlet fitting on the bottom of the aft 
end.  The tank should just be resting in the cavity below the settee.

I believe that Kracor in Wisconsin can still supply these tanks; but you may be 
able to find somebody to plastic-weld a crack if you find one.
