[QUOTE="bassnbrian, post: 191021, member: 1743"] Well, the previous design seen in this post didnt last more than a year. =) It had lots of storage space and a livewell I never used. :P But whenever I took more than one person out (I usually take a couple teens from my youth group) it got crowded real quick. So worked all winter long and this is what I came up with. -Shortened the front deck area (just barely big enough to sit and move the trolling motor) -took out all side storage -removed middle seat (one had been removed already) -replaced support -added framework at a raised level. (at the indent that runs along side of boat) -Added flooring on top of framewook. -added storage areas -placed all removed foam from both seats beneath deck (along sides keeping center clear for drainage) -carpeted decking -added swivel eze mounts and 3 new chairs )13" mounts pictured-also will have 6" stands available for choppier rides-plus seats can fit flat to floor (when this is done they are below level of standard benches) -new motor -new trolling motor -built new switch/electrical center (that opens for easy access) -anchor buddy -new paint job above image altered to hide numbers looking forward to fishing! The new mod gives so much more room it will be nice not to climb over people constantly. It will be especially nice with just two people now. [/QUOTE]
