[QUOTE="chrispbrown27, post: 430329, member: 9661"] Very nice job on the rig. Where about in Kentucky are you? I have a 1648 G3 that I half modded. I bought it just before duck season (3 years ago) and ran it that season as it was. I already had an idea of what I wanted to do, but the extra time actually using the boat helped to solidify my ideas. I didn't want to lose my middle seat completely for passengers so I ended up cutting the seat in half and making two separate halves with a walkway through the center. The seats now house my batteries, to move some weight forward. I didn't really finish what I had planned because spring fishing season came and I got it on the water. I have toyed with the idea of putting some sort of high capacity livewell/gun box, but I hate to lose any walking room/decoy space. The boat came with a deck the previous owner had welded in and so far I have left it in place. If this weather ever figures out if it is spring or winter I would mess around with it some more since I am laid off right now. I like the foam flooring. I wonder if you could put some sort of outdoor carpet over the foam. That way you could have the softness of the foam and the carpet would protect the foam from gouges and damage. [/QUOTE]
