[QUOTE="Tin Man, post: 450893, member: 7021"] I'm leaning on ripping a 2x4 to a 2.5" width. Concerns about other option: On ends, and adding a ripped 2x4 on top of a 2x4, reduces the flexibility of such bunk. Although there is not much curvature to my hull, there is some and I would want the bunk to flex as needed. I'm just wondering if a ripped 2x4 (2.5"X3/12") is enough strength for the weight of hull (300#), outboard (160#), battery, fuel, gear, etc (440#) APPROX TOTAL 900# ? ??? [/QUOTE]
