[QUOTE="Johny25, post: 267491, member: 7791"] I removed half of my center bench seat and framed the floor in with support uprights that were bolted into the floor framework and made into a nice rod holder on the side. I didn't notice much or any flex in the boat when I had the smaller motor on it but when I got the 30hp on it and I was doing 28-30mph in 1-2 foot chop I was really glad I reinforced. The stress on the boat from the speed I was hitting the waves at was at least doubled from what I could tell. I don't like posting pics in someone's boat mod thread so I will remove the pic after you see what I am talking about. Just something to think about if you go with a bigger motor which will cause more stress on the boat. [ATTACH type="full" alt="DSCN5623.JPG"]38767._xfImport[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
