[QUOTE="LDUBS, post: 455419, member: 21536"] [b]"I'm thinking about removing the small orinal bench at the transom and the new one that has been added in front of it and making a new single bench where those two are in a U shape." [/b] I would be thinking of the structural integrity should I remove any of the benches. But then apparently someone has already modified the original design. SF Bay can get pretty nasty and I wouldn't want the boat to fold up on me. If I follow, the U-shaped bench you describe would add structure. There are builds here on TB where a bench was removed and replaced with a wide gunnel, bench, or shelf. Rather than add bench(es) back to the original design by the mfg, I assume your concept will be better for manning the oars. I got to give you credit for rowing out in the Bay with the tides and all.
