Looking to put plywood on the top of my Otter Cabin. Want to take out my seat rail and mount my seats to the plywood. Looking for ideas for support and making compartments underneath. Any pics would help. Thank you.

I'm getting ready to do the same to my Clam X200 Pro in an effort to make it a sleeper. I will share what I do but it won't be until after open water season is done.

https://www.iceshanty.com/ice_fishing/index.php?topic=359640.0 has some pictures

Yep, I like what he has done. The only thing I think I will do differently is to make the deck open in two halves so I can have one seat installed and still access the sled.

I camped for 3 nights in mine last year, using a cot that I put half in/half out of the sled. It worked really great. 3 Nights on Millinocket Lake in Maine:


This was the view out my front door:
