Thats all considered as best I could for now, without putting it in the water. The gas tank is in it's original location. The drivers and passengers seats are 2 feet back from where they were. Batteries are aft and under the deck with room to slide them back about 2 feet if needed. anchor storage in the stern under the deck. if needed. The front structure and roof are only luan glassed over so it's not that much weight up there. but suprizingly strong.
I was thinking of putting the motor on the back and floating it. if it seems right then notch the transom. if it's too bow heavy get the small bracket to offset it somewhat. It had a 100 on it I'm going with a 175

Just finished insulating the fish box and running all the drains for it, and the livewell. fuel water filter and some other stuff. some wireing.
I'm taking a break for a little while I'm spending alot of time on it. working till 10:30- 11:00 every night. not burning out, but classic case of isolating which is not good.
