From what Ive seen on mine the tanks are not foamed or glassed in, they are secured to the engine room and aft bulkheads with brackets - (circled in attached pic)

Can you take some more high res pics from different angles while the tanks are out?
Have your deck plates been leaking?
Now might be the time to inspect the lift mufflers and fiberglass exhaust tube for fatigue and change the exhaust hoses.
Also a good time to change the two thru hulls/hoses on the starb side for the aft bilge pump/fishbox, Gemlux makes the only stainless 11/8 90 that fits in there - you should be able to reach up into the area while the tank is out.
