good to know, I noticed that my splash well is a lot narrower than yours and I think that the stringers run wide enough as to not land in the splash well. I might be able to put some biggers knees and just cut a hole for rigging and glass it back in. You splash well looks really wide. Mine is maybe 3 feet wide.
