[QUOTE="offdutyangler, post: 285129, member: 9926"] Ok so instead of halting the fishing / boating time for this year I decided to hold of on my modification. However to prevent my boys from slipping and sliding around I simply through some outdoor carpet down on the deck. To my surprise it worked out pretty good, so good i'm considering doing just that but this brought me to some questions. I really want a walkthrough deck (from aft to stern) but there is a bench seat. Has anyone seen (or did) a simple mod by removing the middle bench seat and only adding a brace without a floor? if so how? In the picture I was thinking about cutting the bench where the can pole on the left is and where the other poles are on the right, (14inches in from both sides.) then somehow adding a brace straight down attaching it to one of the main ribs of the boat.
