[QUOTE="janichols, post: 477910, member: 22216"] I posted earlier about wanting to make this little boat more accessible for my friend. My mind hasn’t stopped running through Scenarios! The boat is about 14 foot long and 4 foot wide-aircraft aluminum 1946 crestliner. Would it be stable enough To build a platform across the two front bench seats, then I could install a swivel seat. This would allow an easier step off the dock onto a flat surface. I could frame it out in aluminum Topped with plywood and make it so that could be removed! That way if somebody wants to boat as original - It’s easy to convert it back. Wish I could just buy a new boat, but I really like this ole girl! Just don’t want to put too much weight into the boat and risk safety. Thanks in advance! I would also put an aluminum access grab bar like someone shared in my previous post[IMG]https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20200922/aa17e260ba47a72f41945edab1fd9d7c.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20200922/c75e782eafce0b9d0756266faa7ff355.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20200922/1bf644628ac960a0ff067cb516076013.jpg[/IMG] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk [/QUOTE]
