[QUOTE="richg99, post: 438214, member: 4376"] [b]"and remove the foam so that I can make that a storage area"[/b] Hmmm.. if you take xxx cubic feet of foam out, please put back the same amount of foam. It was put in the boat for a reason. Your overall plan sounds great. To mount your trolling motor, you may want to add a professionally made support. One of our sponsors, A.K McCallum offers them in various sizes, depending on the boat. https://www.akmccallumco.com/store-troll.htm On one occasion, I did make up my own support out of a 2x6 and a 2x4. Painted black, it really didn't look all that bad. Before you get head over heels into this project, you may want to look into the legalities of putting the boat into your name. If your grandpa has passed on, the paperwork and legal mess may cost more than the boat is worth. However, "where there is a will, there is a way". regards, and welcome aboard. richg99 [/QUOTE]
