Sorry Andy - late reply This creaks in some 33-2 models because the aft bulkhead is not tabbed to the deck but sits in a groove in the headliner. Grab the handhold on the hanging locker and push and pull and you’ll replicate the creak. I fixed this last winter by cutting out the liner inside the hanging locker and tabbing the bulkhead to the deck. will post pics and details to my 33-2 blog this weekend.
