Yes, the plywood was suspended in the middle and we sat on it. Just about where a round float tube's seat would be now.
It was a wonder we didn't drown! I remember numerous slow leaks and swims. We didn't have the best of tubes. But we wore cutoffs and tee shirts so we weren't weighed down, and we kept our fishing gear on the bank.
We spent most of the summer in the water anyway either swimming or fishing. In Western Washington you swim in the rain too!
Wish I could remember where we got the idea in the first place. I don't remember if we made it up or saw something somewhere that gave us the idea to try it.
