[QUOTE="kmercury, post: 270761, member: 4087"] Side wall blocks installed for the rear bench. They are 1/2 ply with 2x2 and 2x4 glued and screwed to them for cross member framing. I secured them to the bottom of the gunnels and the floor decking. I needed a way to help reduce the flex in the gunnels when you pushed down on them from the top. I am planning on having a collapsible ladder off the side to get out of the water with and the support will be needed. In addition, these will tie the two sides of the boat together when the cross framing is installed. [/QUOTE]
