[QUOTE="back4more, post: 336211, member: 1482"] Ive got a 1436 with a 6hp four stroke that I really want to add a grab bar & tiller extension to but Im not sure I want to add the weight of a floor. I know aluminum would be much lighter but Im limited on what can $pend. how much would a plywood floor slow me down? I can go 17+ mph by myself (210lb), and 13+ mph with myself and two others (totaling 390lbs). no gear with the speed tests. Im thinking the floor would drop me 2 mph ? other than having a base to install a grab bar, what would my benefits be to adding a floor? I dont fish bare foot so the boats natural bottom would not affect me in the hot summer. [/QUOTE]
