Here's a link to what I did on my Californian to support the sagging deck. Ironically, your and my boat were designed and built by the same guy, Jule Marshall, of Marshall Boats and Navigator Boats.

Yea... Directly below my feet is the water tank and the crawlspace that goes forward to the engines. My reply to Keys above covers most of what I would say to you, but the picture will help a lot with the design of whatever solution I decide on using. If I decide to move the battery boxes, that would work well.

I will try to add some more pics when I get home to give y'all a clearer picture.
