[QUOTE="rellis1962, post: 121903, member: 2519"] I have about decided to extend the deck and put a live well, batteries and ped seat in/on the extended part. That will leave plenty of unmolested deck space for standing and trolling motor. Like I said, I am still in the planning stag but am thinking about 2x2 square Al tubing as framing material and Al plating for deck material. May use ply for deck if I can't find the right stuff at this really big scrap yard here in Houston. A lot of variables to think about on this project. I struggle with quality/cost issues. I want it to be nice and quality but would like to keep the cost of the project somewhere in the reasonable range. The boat itself is such high quality, it is hard to think about doing anything to it that is not top notch. Example: I ordered a nice aluminum live well today. I said I didn't want the ultimate fishing rig but I may have spoke too soon. [/QUOTE]
