[QUOTE="Sader762, post: 149082, member: 3046"] Yep, that's my dilemma. I want a front deck area but I don't want it to be too unstable. What I think I may do is cut the bench part way out leaving about 6" from the sides of the boat and going down about half way down the height of the bench. And then reinforcing it and decking from the rear of the bench all the way forward. Does that make sense? I saw aother member did that, I'll see if I can find his post. ETA: Here is what I was thinking, it's Bufford's mod: https://www.tinboats.net/forum/viewtopic.php?f=21&t=9912 [img]https://i29.photobucket.com/albums/c269/RBuffordTJ/JonBoat/Boat13.jpg[/img] [/QUOTE]
