[QUOTE="79SylvanRod, post: 513867, member: 35498"] I ended up notching the floor since the tunnels didn't seem to attach to the floor. Maybe they rested on it when it was built. I'll have a 1.5" aluminum angle attach the floor to the gunnel support to be safe. I have some BIG gaps between the floor and the boat to make water tight. Not sure how that will happen yet. Gluvit prep is underway...or still underway. I initially used stainless steel wire brushes to clean the seams and rivets. I decided to follow it up with 80 grit sandpaper. The boat needs the front 2 feet and the last 4 feet to be completed. [/QUOTE]
