[QUOTE="UCFJed, post: 427761, member: 21982"] Dearl, thanks for the warm welcome! Great looking boat, if you were close I would definitely be giving you a call. I'll check out the front foam using some PVC to see if it's just around the hole that is waterlogged. You have intrigued me regarding the aluminium framing. Do you not need any sort of vertical support? How's the stability? I'm not as comfortable with aluminum but part of the fun is learning new things. How did you affix it to the side walls? I'm leaning more and more towards going the all metal approach but there is less information/guides on how to do it. Bowhunter1661, nice boat as well! I was considering a very similar seating setup to how you had it. Did it come with the TM mount or did you have to do that? Did you like the floor plan or were there things you would change after you fished with it? As I typically bring a buddy to fish in the back, did you have issues fishing in the back with the seat there? Will be doing lots of research on aluminium decking. I've called a few machinist shops but none of them seem too interested. [/QUOTE]
