[QUOTE="LaqueRatt, post: 502476, member: 32586"] Well I don't know much to be honest, but an extra 150 lbs in a boat that weighs what 205? Seems like a whole lot of extra weight. That's about what my outboard and full gas tank weigh. These are such nice sturdy, clean, and simple boats that I'd hate to booger it up with a bunch of wood and alum plates. Actually I've been eyeballing some rubber "pavers" I have left over from a job I did. They're about 16" square and weigh maybe a lb a piece. Thinking of attaching them to a strip of plywood and sliding it right down the center. Should make for better footing without adding much weight or cost. [/QUOTE]
