My '56 Alumacraft has the tranverse floor braces as well. I don't stand up much in the boats, but still found my feet catching on the ribs often enough to mandate a very simply floor covering for walking in the center of the boat. I didn't build cabinets, wedged exterior ply. Made all the difference.
Continue to endeavor! You said it's been a PITA, but you are showing some skills there, and in your description, there's a fair amount of pride in your work. I think you enjoyed it.
Excelsior!!! =D>
Lol thanks allot. Ima do what you did use some wood just in the middle on the floor. Ill continue this journal eventually and do that along with other simple modifications. Lol at times i hated the boat, at times i loved it. Omce its finished ill be very proud of my self. I had a vision for this boat when i bought it and to actually see it come to tuition just as envisioned is satisfying.
