[QUOTE="JAS114, post: 103744, member: 1987"] I actually joined because I stumbled across your thread today. I started to post on it, but didn't want to hijack your thread with my own stuff. I thought about cutting into the benches, but was really trying to avoid any permanent modification. I do need to add an access hatch to the deck. All my wiring is down there and it seems like a good place to hide life vests. I'll get more pics up later. The only big issue I have is a few cracks in the gunwale. I think someone dragged the boat by the back handles and stress cracked them. They are reinforced for now with some aluminum U-channel, but I have a friend who's majoring in mechanical engineering and this semester he learns TIG welding in an elective class. He'll be making my repairs come winter. [/QUOTE]
