[QUOTE="JL8Jeff, post: 503596, member: 12995"] Figured I would update this with more info on my boat. I was out yesterday and looked at the floor closer. It turns out my floor is shaped somewhat like a \___/ to match the hull and it's riveted down to the crossbeams. But the sides overlap the floor and the sides are welded at the top and riveted to the crossbeams. So there's no way to remove the floor easily if I wanted to wrap the vinyl flooring around it. My guess is the sides are welded at the top to reduce any potential rattling/vibration. It's something to think about if anyone plans to order a new boat, maybe get the side pieces separate and put them in yourself if you're ever worried about being able to get under the floor. [/QUOTE]
