[QUOTE="HRalston, post: 304391, member: 10204"] Thanks Stew... It has been coming a long a little slower than I expected but I really want to get it done right. And we all know its tough not being able to use it and work on it at the same time! I am debating whether to put my electronics compartment in the center bench like Gilhunter did - I would still have to cut into the rear bench to create a storage compartment to replace what I would lose in the middle bench. I am a little concerned that putting the batteries, etc. in the rear bench will create a weight problem for me. This will be exacerbated when I upgrade to a 25 HP outboard (I have been searching CL - please let me know if anyone on here has a late model 25 HP that they want to sell/trade) and obviously i need to get this figured out before securing the flooring. I will take a test ride before I do anything and see how the boat sits in the water with the new flooring. Any ideas would certainly be appreciated. Thanks! [/QUOTE]
