[QUOTE="russ010, post: 44631, member: 677"] can somebody tell me the best place to purchase the wheels/tires from? I've seen a lot of prices online, but I know somebody out there can probably do a better search than I can. I don't know if it's cheaper to buy online, or if there is a store that carries them. I also have another question.... I plan on decking the inside, not up to the gunwhales, but to where it will still be stable enough for standing. Would it be better to use something like Herculiner, or just a flat paint? I was thinking of doing the Herculiner on the floor, then flat up near the edges. I have also thought about framing out off the walls about 1.5" so that I can make me some storage compartments with Plano boxes - then I would really only need to paint the top rail - I guess this would end up being the blue as well, then I wouldn't have to buy any more paint. If you guys have any ideas for certain mods, please post them! I really want to cut down that center bench some and have a walk through straight to the front deck, but I'm still leery about cutting it out in fear of losing support. My floor is a 36", and the beam is 54".... I'm just trying to keep this thing relatively stable because I hate fishing sitting down. If you can think of anything that should be added that you wish you had, or if you have anything in mind - I'm open to all ideas! [/QUOTE]
