[QUOTE="bobberboy, post: 201559, member: 1417"] I would make a rigid connection between the back of the seat and the transom - maybe using 1" or slightly larger square-tube aluminum. To that you could hinge hatch covers that would cover each side of the cavity in the back. I did this with plywood on my grizzly but you could do the same with aluminum sheet material. If you did use the 1/4" material for the deck you wouldn't have to have supports through the middle of the cavity making the space open to larger things such as your gas tank or battery. I made mine so that with 4 screws I can take off the whole thing in case I need to take out the gas tank for any reason. Be sure to pay attention to the fact that the hatch covers need to have a corner cut off to by-pass the gussets in the back corners. Here's the link to my solution...[url]https://www.tinboats.net/forum/viewtopic.php?f=21&t=13758[/url] [/QUOTE]
