[QUOTE="perchjerker, post: 406335, member: 20605"] I know this thread is a little old. I sent gillhunter a PM and hope to hear back I am sure some of you can answer some of my questions I have an almost identical boat and would like to something similar to this my main question is about removing the benches and the bracing Looks like he just made some out of plywood? Do you think that will cause any problems? Is this strong enough? And what about it rotting after a few years? Unless its marine grade, he does not really go into any detail about it I would only use mine on small lakes with and have a 9.9 for it but still I am leery of this without the advice of others who have done it Also, isn't there flotation under the benches? I never looked at mine (its currently up north at my cabin so I cant just go out and look) please give me your thoughts. [/QUOTE]
