Decking.

im thinking of a ladder frame. like BLK fisher. but i dont know if the screws may tear out one day and have the whole deck collapse down. would that work?

If you are thinking of Decking like BLKFISHER than you will not have any problems. That looks more than solid....maybe even overkill.

For those not familiar, here is a link to BLKfishers mod: https://www.tinboats.net/forum/viewtopic.php?f=21&t=1718

He does not state how he attached the frame, maybe send him a PM.

i see how he did it. he got a 2x4 and layed along the bench's side.... then i think i just attached the framing to the 2x4s.

I was going through dome old posts look at this deck, you could do something like this and lay it on top of your benches

If you do it like that, You wont have to worry about the floor being curved. You could even make hatches for storage underneath.......
