Good idea. My bad for having a minor case of ADD today.
The thread hijack started with this picture:
As I'm planning on doing something similar with mine, I am wondering about the details behind the construction of these.
My original plan is to have a length of 2x4x1/8" tube in place of the old rocker area, run some triangular bracing plates from the 3x3 frame reinforcement up to that, then skin it with 1/8" or 3/16" plate to give the boatside effect. For even greater rigidity I was thinking about holesawing some 1.75" holes just above the floor inside, and connecting the 2x4 tube to the interior cage.
Overkill? Underkill? Thoughts and pictures/diagrams welcomed.
