[QUOTE="airshot, post: 505794, member: 1183"] Aluminum angle, no iron in an aluminum boat !! I used 1/4" pop rivets to attach to the sides of the built in tank seats. One side of the angle aluminum should go up so there is no issue getting it riveted. Then just cut the plywood to the length of the span between the seats and as wide as you want the floor and lay it on the angle. I had my fuel tank on one side and deep cycle battery on opposite side, this kept me more centered in the boat for better balance. I then used some 3/8" plywood and made a cover over tank and battery that attached to the seat top with velcro. Made a nice small flat surface to work on, set gear on, and again kept my big butt more centered in the boat. [/QUOTE]
