[QUOTE="thill, post: 377773, member: 4972"] It really depends on the boat, and what it's rated for to begin with, and also with how you stiffened it up with the flooring. Some boats come with either two or three bunks, with the center livewell as an OPTION. That is the one you seem to be looking for, and that would be the obvious choice. No matter what, you need to use discretion before starting to tear a boat apart, and preferably some communication with the manufacturer. They are the best ones to tell you if it will be okay in a particular model. Here is a pic of a boat I had recently. It had a 40 on the back and ran great. If you look, you can see where the center bunk had been removed. They did a pretty nice job, and I would never have known, had I not noticed the bolts that filled the holes where the bunks were.
