Chumbucket - V-20 Fisherman CC repair question

[CapnBill]

Chumbucket...

As a "GOD", but more importantly, as a fellow V-20 CC Fisherman owner, I have a repair question about my '83 V-20 CC. Up forward, in the setup section, the bottom (floor part) in the aftermost (of two) storage locker is soft. It is the locker (or fishwell) with the overboard drain. Do you, or any others have any ideas on how best to fix it? Should I cut out, and replace the bottom floor of the stoage locker, or what??

Thanks
C-Bill
