On my 95 the deck has a large access that is removable to get to the fuel tank. I've noticed on later models that the access is limited if not impossible for tank removal without cutting into deck. :(

Not removable without cutting the deck. Grady did that when they switched to the plastic fuel tanks in 1997 or so. My boat is a 1995 model year, which originally had an aluminum tank and a deck hatch to gain access to it. When the hull was replaced under warranty in 1998, it came back with a plastic tank and solid deck with access ports for the fuel fill/vent and sending unit. The good news is the plastic tank should last the life of the boat, so you shouldn't ever have to cut...
