[QUOTE="richg99, post: 465054, member: 4376"] Welcome BigEd313. This site is a great place to be. Texas is a great place to be, too. I live in North Houston half of each year, and TN. for the Summers. Perhaps we can have a Texas get-together sometime. I noticed in your comments about the old boat that you used Treated Lumber. Lots of opinions, but at least I, and others, avoid treated wood with aluminum boats. I didn't see any mention of it on your new craft. My only suggestion, since the new boat is a lot narrower than the older 1448, would be to put your deck on temporarily. Then, try a day of fishing and see if the additional tippiness is OK with you and the wife. I am old and no longer as agile as I once was, so balance and stability are more important to me now. regards, and welcome aboard. [/QUOTE]
