[QUOTE="soggybottom, post: 274871, member: 9451"] I think I will be going with 5/8 plywood. If there is too much flex i will just add more bracing. I've been meaning to do something about the winch but just haven't gotten to it. Honestly with as light as the boat is I think between the rear strap, and the winch pulling down on the bow, there is very little chance for movement. As for the transducer being so high, I only have a problem when cruising at full throttle. At about half or below it reads well. I tested a few locations and decided on this one to reduce the chance of it being ripped off when I beach the boat. Probably picking up the plywood tonight. I will try and get some pictures of it going in at some point. Thanks everybody [/QUOTE]
