[QUOTE="Jeffrey, post: 300262, member: 10686"] Ok, I measured it. The bottom of the bench is 3.25" above the hull. The ribs are 1.5" high. If I used 1/16" sheet metal, then there would still be about 1.75" gap between the bottom of the bench and the floor. You wouldn't want to stick your entire foot in a gap that small, but you would still want the floor to go under the bench a bit so your toes would still be on something solid. If you dropped a hook or lure you lure you would want a bit of floor before it fell off the edge. [/QUOTE]
