[QUOTE="tccanoe, post: 168363, member: 3325"] Thad, Like I said. If you're going to put flotation and a deck down, I would pull all that aluminum out with the flotation on the sides. I would not patch the spot where the console hole is. I would just take it all out and start over clean. You have a big stable boat there and it seems to me that your space could be put to better use. Can you tell if your old flotation is water-logged or not? That might be the telling factor. Looking back at your pics, I can see the front deck is mounted on the (for lack of a better word) flotation-housing. That would be an easy way to bring the deck back with less bracing needed along the way. It's probably enough flotation as is if it's in good conditon. I can see why you're in overload. I'll shut up now. [/QUOTE]
