[QUOTE="Jay415, post: 239032, member: 6905"] Well after the trial, I decided I could def use a little more weight in the stern. I really want to keep a lower deck because when I take my 5 year old with me. But then I thought why can't I have the best of both (upper and lower deck) I was thinking of decking from the front of the rear bench seat to the transom and add a pedestal mount for the seat so it can be used lower deck or upper deck like a bass boat. It would add about 50lbs to the stern to help with weight balance. The upper deck area would be 36" x 64" Do you think that's enough? I photoshopped a picture so you see what I mean. Of course I would have vents and access panels. Also the deck would be below the motor mounts, this was just a quick photoshop mockup. What do you guys think? Comfortable to fish from?
