[QUOTE="AF1Sgt, post: 373796, member: 15740"] Thanks BThompson. I plan to use some 2x2s vertical from either the current crossmembers or make a foundation with possibly 2x4s to support it. Not quite sure yet. I'll definitely post pics along the way. I'm thinking about using lock pins on the bottom of the deck support (where it meets the boat bottom/cross members) so I can remove the entire deck for cleaning or whatever. The 2x2s at Home Depot here are 4ft long and only .86 cents each, outdoor carpet is .41 cents/sq foot and the metal brackets are all under $1.50each and I already have boxes of various hardware/screws so it's a cheap project. I'm not worried about the negativity anymore. That's just people expressing their pessimistic opinions. That's what happens on the Internet I guess. Hang in there with me and we'll both end up with nice tin boats born from a little elbow grease and ingenuity. Good luck to us! Thanks, post updates soon! [/QUOTE]
