I was able to deep dive under the cockpit and to bolt a motor mount and ladder to the transom. I'm small but not mini (5'6", 160#) and discovered a technique for getting in and out fairly easily. I'll dig out my earlier post if anyone is interested. Heck, fly me to your place some weekend and I'll be your "inside" guy.

It would take Mini-Me to get in there. I replaced the thru hull bolts on the M15's rudder and had to a large hole in my cockpit to reach them. I had one existing access hole. Even with the two holes it has a hard job. I can't imagine getting in to attach a pulpit.
