I don't have a lot of pictures here because we went in with a basic idea -- see first post -- and just started putting wood on. 2. Now this part we used a lot of Cedar that my Father-in-law had around for the frame and used the MDO for supports and the deck itself.3. We decided that again -- we didn't have enough MDO to do the whole thing in one sheet so we split it up.   a. come to find out -- this worked out best because we could work with smaller peices of wood to scribe to the angles needed and we could put battens down along the seams to provide extra strength to the entire deck without adding too much framing.4. Now the idea was that I wanted a Hold to put about 3 dozen decoys in. This hold would have a removeable hatch and then when the hold was empty a person could sit in there and hunt from inside the hold.5. We ended up having enough room for an anchor hatch just in front of it too before the upper deck meets flush with the Gunnel. Eventually I will put a motor up front, but for now I wanted to get the wiring done and the battery compartment built and ready for that day.So thats where we are -- Back to Epoxy chore -- Yes I know it doesn't all need it, but I want this boat to last!Next this weekend is the Gun box and Storagethen we tackle the aft end of the boat -- stay tuned I totally goofed already there...I hope I can find a way out....not gonna tell ya what I did, lets see if you can figure it out -- BL the transom tells the story.</blockquote>
