[QUOTE="kmercury, post: 163194, member: 4087"] Well, I was able to move ahead and get the deck cut and pre-fitted. I did not use a cardboard template though. Instead, I knew how long it had to be and how wide it had to be at the front, the back and at each rib support in between. I laid out a centerline on my plywood and then measured to either side of it half the distance that I needed at each rib support point. I then simply connected the lines on each side with a flexible piece of trim I had sitting around. I cut it out and here it is. I need to notch out the deck board at each rib support so it will sit flat on the deck supports (right now it rests about 1/4" above the deck supports). I threw the cooler (live well) in and places a board in front of it where a bench seat will be. I hope you can start to get the picture of how I want it laid out. Just imagine the front bench seat removed and replaced with a pedestal seat. Still a lot of work to do! [/QUOTE]
