RJ, to clarify, I don't really care about "rare" - it's a boat, not a Picasso. It's just that looking at the pics of that model, it seems like a fair amount of work to make your changes and still have it end up being a boat you'd be proud of. You'd have to chop the thwart into two seats, put supports in, glass an end on each of the storage boxes, and relocate additional hinges on the new thwart seats. Maybe you'll get a better price in the islands on the glass work, but in New England where I am it would not be cost effective.
