[QUOTE="richg99, post: 174943, member: 4376"] IF you can open any hatch at all....like maybe the anchor hatch...you can stick a bright flashlight and a big mirror down the hole. By shining the flashlight in the right direction, you can see a lot. If not, you may be able to "tap" your way to find the supports. If you find a potential hollow sounding area...then you can use the "cut and creep " method to open the hole carefully. Cut & creep....You find a hollow sounding spot; drill a hole big enough to get your finger in...stick the finger in and go all the way around the hole, extending the finger as far as it will go. If you don't feel anything...you make the hole a bit bigger ( or drill another one very close by) and "creep" your way around until you have something big enough to put a light and a mirror in. Hope this helps. Rich [/QUOTE]
