20' SF mods

[hobson]

Well im about neck deep in the restore and will be posting many pics in the future but im currently trying to decide what to do in the aft of my boat. I cut out the splashwell b/c the transom is enlosed with a bracket. I was thinking about building a box level with transom in between the two jumper seats. I was also considering cutting out the jumper seats and building a box, much like the back of the 23', all the way across the boat level with the transom. If I take this route it will only come out roughly 16" or so. Just putting it out there to see what you guys think. This boat with be a project boat for the seadek website and possibly being going to a few boat shows in the future so I'm have some pretty cool ideas and mods planned.

How did she ride with the bracket on the back? Alot of people do not recommend that because it will dramatically affect the ride.
Can't wait to see the progress. I am restoring mine as well.
