[QUOTE="russ010, post: 88783, member: 677"] I'm just assuming that the floor is 36".. .I haven't seen a 36" floor with a beam less than 51"... and I haven't seen a 32" with a width more than 48". But then again - I'm sure it's been done and you may have found one of the boats that prove me wrong. My wife and I stand in my boat while we're fishing - but I always made her sit down when I set the hook (I'm a "cross the eyes" hook setter). I did set the hook once with her standing and I didn't tell her I was going to - she didn't get unstable when I did it. But you do need to keep the decks no higher than the benches. I would really only recommend the front person be decked higer and the guy in the rear stand on a floor deck - it keeps the center of gravity on the boat equaled out... doesn't sound right, but that's what I learned in physics. If you need any help, don't be afraid to ask questions... better to ask than to cost yourself some $$$ [/QUOTE]
