Look at the floor construction.
It's a sandwiched floor with two thin layers plywood glued to a foam panel. My guess is the sandwiched panel glue has failed and the three layers are sliding against each other, no longer a rigid sandwiched panel layer. It looks like the tub below the floor surface is a couple inches narrower than the floor width to exterior cabin walls. I think you could remove your carpet and lay at least 5/8" plywood over your floor tight fitting wall to wall. Make a cardboard template and then cut out the plywood then test fit. When you have a good fit, you can spread some panel adhesive over the floor then lay the plywood over it and set a bunch of weight over the panel while glues drying. It looks that this will ride over the frame of the under tub side walls so it will be fully supported on the sides. It sounds like the aluminum cross framing in the floor is on 30 inch spacing and that would place a large unsupported area right under the sink work area. At 30" back from the front of the TC wall behind the cab, I bet your floor is pretty solid.
