Why not use 2 inch ribbed plastic pipe from tank, via hole against hull in locker top, up to foredeck to a flush deck fitting. That is what I have done on pretty much all the boats I have fitted out. A lot depends of course on where the tank filler connection is and what sort of tank you have, for example a Crew-Saver bladder tank can be made up to owner's dimensions to fit a awkward space, like the bow of a cruiser, and you can stipulate where the filler is located.
But a filler pipe up the side of the hull is not too much of an intrusion to a made-up bed, the mattress will just squash around it so I advise you bring the filler pipe up against hull or bow and route it above bunk to the deck filler above on foredeck or side deck.
Finally living the dream!
