Question first - - - is that piece of plywood the size of your deck ?
or just an example of installation.
If you plan on making it bigger, this is what I suggest ..................
(also the same suggestions will work for any size deck for a V-Hull )
Question #2: what are the clamps for ???
- personally - if I were doing it, I would make some "L" brackets out of 1/8" aluminum flat bar
and screw to the sides of the hull with brass screws and nuts - not the ribs.
and on the leading edge of the platform, use something to reinforce it - 2x2, 2x4, aluminum angle, etc etc.
if you think about it carefully - what type of screws will you use for rib mounting ?
probably sheetmetal self tapping ones that will eventually work loose from the constant flexing of the boat.
for example, make the "L" brackets out of 3/4" wide aluminum flat bar. drill holes in the hull just big enough
for the brass screws, there is no need for sealer as it is above the water line and will have a tight fit.
If you don't want to make your own brackets, store-bought corner brackets will work just as well and
will last many years.
as for the platform itself - - - - I am a stickler for good cosmetics as well as safe functionability.
The design you have in your photo will work great for the pattern - make adjustments where it is
the same distances all the way around to suit you. .........
then, cut some thin cardboard, such as a cereal box (or beer box) and tape it firmly to your plywood
against the sides - then trace that to your finish plywood that you will use for the deck and wa-la,
you have a very nice fit - - - then install your brackets..........
and again, I personally would not screw into the ribs; it is just not safe, in my opinion - but that is just me.
Now, if you are mounting the decking to a flat bottom, yes, I would screw into the ribs, no question.
