[QUOTE="crabbingdan, post: 419130, member: 15710"] With the middle seat gone, there are two bench seats left, not counting the small "seat" up in the bow. I removed the old wood bench boards and wanted to reinforce and attach the metal sheets from the bottom of the hull to the sides of the boat near the bench braces. I ran 1" aluminum angle horizontally lengthwise along the bench seats and attached them to the side braces. Then I attached the front and back benches with 1" aluminum angle running lengthwise on both sides of the boat. Also ran angle from bench to bench at the floor of the boat, screwing them into the floor ribs. Then connected these top and bottom angles with vertical 1" angle supports to form the framework for side rails. [/QUOTE]
