[QUOTE="huntinfool, post: 107925, member: 1931"] First off welcome to the site. Take a bunch of pictures to show the before and after pics and take several pics during the mod. I would not use steel in your boat as stated above. You could run 2x2's along the ribs and place your floor on top of the fron and middle seats. That would be easy. You could take the middle seat out and fab a new rear brace and then build your deck off of that, however you will lose some strength and floatation. Now if you tie your rear brace to the ribs it will make it strong again and should keep it from flexing. Keep us updated and good luck with the build. [/QUOTE]
