[QUOTE="reedjj, post: 189743, member: 4585"] I used 2x2's and 15/32nds plywood to extend my front deck out. My Alumacraft 1542 just had a little seat up front. Now I have a nice little deck thats big enough to put a bass style seat and trolling motor on. I also have a lid that opens up to use as storage underneath. Its the "Swamp Sled" thread.https://www.tinboats.net/forum/viewtopic.php?f=21&t=17299&start=25 If your good with aluminum I would use that instead of wood, but for me wood was cheaper and easier to work with. It worked out great and is plenty sturdy and doesn't weigh that much. I am 205lbs and can walk around on it without worry. I love the design of your boat. I wish I had thge tall transom on mine.
