EPA was breathing down our necks in the oilfield (I assume key west is similar) we used extreme solvents like condensate or benzine that would attach and turn any liquid oil into a quickly evaporating mixture and poof, it was gone. Probably took a lot of years off our lives but we always left the site "looking and smelling" clean. I would have drained all the water down pumped 10 gallons of diesel into it, It would bond with the gasoline, then flush it out. Its hard to smell a few ounces of diesel but a few ounces of gasoline will reek for ages.

Owner says that it still smells like diesel. What a mess. Glad he doesn’t blame us!

When in worked for an environmental response/ cleanup company we used a product called Micro Blaze. Naturally occurring microbial that consumes hydrocarbons basically. All it needs is hydrocarbon, water, air and it will clean it right up and leaves a fresh smell behind

Had my SeaRay 400SB in dry dock last week. Changed the bow thruster blade from 3 blade to 6 with cupped blades. It’s so quiet you can’t hear it and the performance of the thruster is 70% better. Also adjusted the rudder actuators and autopilot. ready for summer

Matt and Karry Ann try pure orange juice concentrate in the water tank. Put the orange juice in then fill tank with fresh water and soak for day or two. Just a suggestion. Good luck.

Just a wild guess. Start with five tubes of orange juice concentrate from a grocery store. It just depends what is less expensive in that day, full gallons of orange juice or the concentrate from frozen foods section.

I would use a gallon of odor ban. And leave it for a couple of days and then flush the tank thoroughly. The plastic tank has absorbed the odor of the fuel. It’s probably in the water pumps the faucets and everywhere😳
