[QUOTE="typed by ben, post: 321356, member: 11717"] more cardboard work early this morning. laid out what i need on the front deck and i was again astonished at how quickly space got eaten up. but i do like what im seeing got my foot pedal recess, port battery access, and starboard storage laid out along with the seat base location. i may not ever use the seat but i do want the option. the foot pedal recess actually asked some interesting questions about my support under the deck, especially as it relates to my seat base support.[ATTACH type="full" alt="20130706_091911.jpg"]54740._xfImport[/ATTACH] i also toyed with a side storage hatch. this one is 20" wide and 57" long. i could put a cooler, first aid kit, throwable, extra life preservers, etc. in there and it would be easy to access from the ground. if i did rod storage it would have to be on top of the lid, which is okay with me as i dont leave rods on the boat. in this pic you can also see my improvised PVC boat cover supports. [ATTACH type="full" alt="20130706_092007.jpg"]54741._xfImport[/ATTACH] im kind of thinking 20" is too broad across the top so i may cut it back a few inches and see how it fits then. i do like the side storage option like some of yall have though.
