[QUOTE="Shoedawg, post: 414931, member: 13490"] Not at all. Here is what the stock is and how much I paid for it: 6063 Aluminum Square Tube 1x1x1/8 wall T52 [b](21ft) [/b][b][u]$26.82[/u][/b] 6061 Aluminum Angle 1.5x1.5x1/8 wall T6 [b](25ft)[/b][b][u] $22.58[/u][/b] Find a local aluminum dealer to buy such sizes. The BIG BOX stores will charge a high mark up price on aluminum, if you buy through them. I wouldn't use wood to help save a few bucks. With the cost and time to seal it properly, the weight it adds to the boat, and then having to rebuild a deck, floor, etc. again in a few years due to rot, paying the extra cost for aluminum is worth it.
