I just bought my first boat, a 14ft valco with a 15hp Johnson tiller O/B. I would like to at least install a flat floor and preferably, convert to a walk-through at the middle bench seat. I have read a lot of the threads here on floors and would like to pose a few questions.
First: how deep is it reasonable to set the floor to maintain stability, i.e. not raise the center of gravity too high?
Second: will the angle aluminum that I see at lowes.com work for floor framing?
Third: does anyone have a suggestion on how to split the center bench seat maintain structural support for the sides?
Thanks
