[QUOTE="bad1, post: 262040, member: 3470"] I just started my Tracker V Guide Special too. The deck was rotted very bad. I have the 1989 Tracker with a 25hp Evinrude 2 stroke, but looks just like your boat. For the front lower deck 5 3" x 4, I used the old deck as a pattern. I cut, and needless to say, it didnt fit very well. Was not an issue previously because the carpet used was not really marine grade carpet, so it was thicker and did not show the "crooked" cut deck. How did you create your pattern for the lower deck. How did you get the curve looking so close. Is there a secret? I have replaced the large deck and it is carpeted, I will finish cutting the other pieces ten replace carpet all at once. Where did you get the hatches, and the PVC underneath the hatches? Great idea, by the way, am thinking of putting my trolling motor battery up front. I am also going to install all weather conduit and run the wiring thru it, and will also add lights to the rod boxes. One more question, Whare are you using to seal the wood, and where did you buy it. Great job you are doing. Regards, Ron [/QUOTE]
