Don't you think ankles is a little extreme. Haven't done one yet that was uncomfortable leaning against the gunnels.
Plus raising the floor a couple inches isn't going to affect the ride (CG)as much as installing brackets and moving tanks around.
The first question I always get when selling one of these restores is "does it self bail"
