| I've seen ppl cut the tops off and just make a new top.. Might be a good idea to put a brace in the center just incase...

I have recently purchased my jon boat, and the same question was asked by me to serveral people in the marine industry. And even the place I bought mine from told me "No!" don't cut into them, they are filled with floatation material and that is for the integrity of the vessel. I was told that putting small holes in them for mounting seats, etc..., would not be a problem, just use silicone if there is excess in your hole. Hope that helped!
