Did you mean not high enough? I've never seen anyone stand on the
gunwhales when tonging, more often leaning against them.

Like I said I did it for a living, but not in Fl. maybe they do it different in Fl? Looks the same to me, I worked my CB Deadrise on the James river tonging oysters with my boat.
Not Florida, My mother's family was in Southern Md. They had "Bay
built" boats with a wide deck in back and they usually tonged from
inside the boat from what I remember. You surely did not want to fall
in the water in the winter and the bay was nasty most of the time.
