[QUOTE="bigwave, post: 270611, member: 7537"] The way it is right now is very solid.....I might put a few more braces between the long runs on the bottom deck....I have been holding out on the decking since I want it to be aluminum. I put a small piece of plywood down on the deck area and It felt real solid. On the upper decks there will be vertical pieces of plywood to carry the load of the decks. I will have two side lockers running between the casting decks, port and starboard....this in theory should stiffen up the entire boat since I can attach at multiple points and pull the sides in......I hope to stand on these lockers too.....we will see. Hey did you get a good deal on your motor? My family has gone back home, so now I hope to work on the boat this weekend.....still have a ton of stuff to do. [/QUOTE]
