[QUOTE="Pector55, post: 469665, member: 25077"] Got a bit more done this week. I had pre-cut the deck a while back and added 3 coats of epoxy to seal it. I mounted the deck this week and got it level. Prior to putting down the deck I put 2" thick styrofoam along the beam down the center and cut each side at a 45* angle so the water channel remained. I cut holes in the deck, near the hull and filled under the deck with pour foam. I was concerned about the foam pushing up on the outsides of the deck so I cut a 3" strip of wood and coated it with epoxy and ran it up along the outside of the deck to assure if there was any lift, it wouldn't do so in a way that would make my deck uneven. After pouring, I cut all of the excessive foam that pushed up the outsides, then resealed the trimmed foam with quad foam. Overall, the deck is amazingly solid now, I will have killer floatation and I'm sure the sound deadening will be great.
