[QUOTE="CoolHand, post: 211346, member: 4102"] Thanks! As for the floor tubing...I made brackets out of 1 1/2 inch aluminum angle and used those to rivet the whole structure to the ribs of the boat. They didn't really have to bear the load. They just hold the parts in place. The tubes on either side really carry the load like a ladder. I actually got more done tonight. I built out a bracket to support the battery box. Got all the wiring done. Mounted my switch plate, bow and stern lights, bilge pump, dc outlet, and a few other accessories. Tomorrow I am putting new carpet on my trailer bunks and then I'm going fishing. :) [/QUOTE]
