[QUOTE="bassboy1, post: 10076, member: 55"] Welcome to the board. You have stumbled upon a good group of people here - well, except maybe esquired. Just kidding. I am going to point out a couple of issues I see here. First of all, I have never been real crazy about oriented strand board (OSB) in a boat. If you have ever left a piece outside in the rain, next to a piece of plywood, you would understand why. In my opinion, plywood, and a good coat of water sealer, or oil based paint is the way to go, unless you venture into aluminum. Also, do have any pictures of what your back raised deck is held up with? As far as your bow deck, I could spend a long time explaining it, or I could tell you to drop down and view a thread started by member pbw, about his conversion. Just remember, don't use galvanized fasteners, or pressure treated lumber, and you should be good. Nice job so far! [/QUOTE]
