[QUOTE="OldYorkFishMd, post: 463113, member: 24015"] Been a while and that lil 1436 I had is gone now but I ended up not minding the little bit of extra weight up there. Loved fishing off it. Decided I wanted a bigger boat though. Starting a new project soon (1648) going to use aluminum angle this time and 1/8th" sheet for the deck and floor over the ribs. but that extra bit of wood i had up front on the 14 footer was 2x4 that I cut in half lengthwise for the outside supports. so not too much extra weight compared to what you have. I noticed the deck seemed to dip a little if I stepped on the outside part of it and that solved the problem completely. [/QUOTE]
