[QUOTE="parkerdog, post: 201286, member: 5503"] I want to cover up the place where the batteries and charger etc. goes in the back between the transom and seat. (mainly to keep prying eyes out) Would a 1/4 inch thick aluminum plate be strong enough? The dimensions would be 20" x 60". It would lay on top of the pods on each side and I thought maybe a hinge attached to the back of the seat or maybe just a strip of angle on the seat and on the transom and just have the plate sitting on top? [ATTACH type="full" alt="bilge 003.JPG"]0[/ATTACH] Where the gray lines are would be the angle. How much weight could this hold? Could I go with 3/16 ? I've looked through the archives but couldn't find anything specific. I don't want to use wood because this boat will be sitting in the water most of the time. What have other people done for this mod.? Thanks Sam [/QUOTE]
