[QUOTE="Djknyork, post: 278440, member: 7054"] I'm no engineer but if I were concerned about any boat folding up like a taco I would add a couple full lenth pieces of box tub from front to back... Or pieces of tubing between the existing ribs. again from front to back.. Personally the only way I would even worry about adding side structures is if after removing the seat there were no ribs under it (i.e. its removal left a large opening on the floor void of any cross supports). Of course length of the boat and motor horse power play a role as well. I long piece of any metal is easier to bend than a short piece. [/QUOTE]
