I recently purchased a 1436 flat bottom, not sure the make or model its fairly old. Im wanting to convert the boat into a duck boat and fish when i have time but mostly for ducks. What I would like to do is take out the middle seat and make a gun box/storage along one side so that i can use it as a bench when tucked into the grass to hunt. I have read that some times taking the middle seat out will pretty much comprimise the structure of the boat. Is that true and does the gun box/bench/storage just seem like a bad idea with a 36" bottom.
Any ideas or critisms are welcome
Thanks
