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.
