[QUOTE="gatorglenn, post: 449591, member: 20097"] Hey Tim, You could make this deck so it’s removable. What if you rivet a C channel a long the front edge of the bench seat. And cut the plywood so tight. That you push it up under the fore deck, then pull it back in to the channel. Then screw though the channel into the wood decking. And put angle aluminum bracing screw to the wood underneath. Like in a bass boat hatch. 2 or 3 pieces should do the job for no flexing when you walk on it. Worst case if it was the pounce the front of it would only pick up and hit the foredeck then fall back down. Unless you put some kind of a strap or fasten it up front so it wouldn’t bounce. Then all your weight it’s just in that one deck board with the bracing underneath. Idk just a thought. Or run a kick plate down to the deck. From the TM piece.
