Hello all. Long time lurker. Finally bought two modified vees, Mirrocraft 14 and a 16. Just finishing up riveting the frame. I was planning on going 1/8" diamond plate aluminum and was absolutely sticker shocked. Two 4x8 1/8" polished aluminum from 600-900 dollars. I am looking for other options to keep the cost down. I bought the rivets to install deck but not sure if PVC can be used. I would be worried about cracking the deck from pounding along Cape Cod chasing Albacore. Wood is not an option because of termite problems in the neighborhood. Looking to stay light for fuel economy. Thanks in advance!
