[QUOTE="shaw_426hemi, post: 200359, member: 5835"] Ryan, I am planning to start a very similar project and i had a few questions for you on your modifications. 1. Did you just drill holes and rivet in the added supports you put in after removing the bench seat? If so what type of rivets and where could i get them? 2. Did you weld up the new supports when you added them in or did you bend them on some kind of bender before putting them in? 3. How did you plug the old rivet holes from the bench seat? 4. Did you weld anything to the aluminum of the boat? If so what type of welder did you use? 5. What type of foam did you use for the floor (closed cell)? 6. Are you putting in an aluminum floor? If so what thickness and are you knotching it out to go around the floor supports? You have a great project going and I hope to use alot of yours work as reference on my 1436 open floor plan conversion. Thanks, Shaw [/QUOTE]
