[QUOTE="Buckethead, post: 379691, member: 9470"] I can't speak for every build on every boat but my boat does not flex with the bench removed. I stripped my hull and rebuilt the front deck in and the rear back in the way I wanted them. Along my gunwales I used 1" x 2" aluminum from the front deck to the rear, attached it through the top row of bench seat holes and used stainless steel button head bolts instead of rivets. I would do it this way again and recommend anyone to do the same. There's pictures on my build when I was there. [/QUOTE]
