[QUOTE="Dman23, post: 259895, member: 8226"] Thanks guys! Got it out last tuesday with my dad for its first fish since the mod. Was really a joy having so much more room after those benches were out! Couldnt have done it this nice without this forum. I was thinking about a tackle box installed, but the more i thought about adding any more boxes that couldnt be moved the less i wanted to add. After fishing in it glad i didnt build more, its nice to be able to move stuff for leg room when and where i want it at a particular time. I was going to make the box i built for my battery and electrical twice as big too and use the rest for storage, but i am glad i didn't. Instead i found a tote that fits perfect there, and if the front person wants leg room there, they can move the tote where they want to. In a 14 footer with a 48 inch floor, room for me is the highest priority. Being able to move things to create room where i want when i want ended up being more important that something permanent. And even in the first time fishing, found it to be the right decision. Here is a picture of the tote i found at wally world. Fits perfect between the box and my front side support. Also a picture of my dad up front. He seamed to have more than enough room even being a bigger guy up front. Glad i didnt build a deck and just kept a simple 1 piece floor for stability and simplicity. [/QUOTE]
