So I've seen a lot of back and forth on the boards about bench removal but not much on replacing them with angled support brackets.
A new member (aaronkcmo) just posted his boat that has both benches removed and have been replaced by angled brackets to support the sides.
What is the consensus on doing this? Do you think this style of support would be adequate to keep the sides from flexing?
I really like the concept, but personally I would feel more comfortable with brackets that are a little thicker...but I do like to overbuild things.
