[QUOTE="fishin_with_my_kids, post: 316491, member: 11872"] I just bought a new 1436 Tracker about a month ago. I've already taken it out several times with my Dad and my kids and it's been a blast! The only issues I noticed were the battery in the back (lack of room for my 29 size battery and box) and the seat clamp I have just doesn't stay put. I've already moved the battery to behind the middle bench seat so the top can go on the box (and the kids use it as a foot stool while fishin). To remedy the seat clamp issue, I want to install carpeted decks on the back and middle bench seats and then build a small deck on the front to increase the sitting room (my Dad usually fishes in the front with one of my 3 kids in the middle). I also want to put a carpeted deck between the back and middle seats to level the floor and prevent slipping for the kids. I've already gotten a ton of ideas reading through all of the mod posts and I can't wait to get started, but the biggest question I have is what size plywood do I need to use? I want it to be sturdy, but I also don't want any unnecessary weight. This is my first mod, so any help you all can provide will surely save me from doing things twice! Thanks.
